    Sorry for delays, Tumblr questions are not forwarded to email since April and I just spot it.

  • Is there any way you could make an Android app that I could just share the URL to in the sharing menu so it goes right there?

  • bleacherreport articles are showing up blank (screenshot works but the actual webpage archive is blank). Could you take a look at this? Thanks!

    e.g. bleacherreport*com/articles/2583445-nba-opening-night-gets-the-hotline-bling-drake-music-video-treatment

    Anonymous

    I made a fix for future bleacherreport saves, but this one seems unrecoverable (React often cleans the whole page on JavaScript error, and this is what was happening on bleacherreport)

  • Hi, thanks for providing this fabulous archive service! In https://blog.archive.today/post/688077534761566208, you said that user’s IP address won’t be send to website since 2019. Could you provide an option to send IP address to capture localized contents? And some websites may only be reached in certain regions… :-(

    Anonymous

    Websites no longer look at `X-Forwarded-For` for user region, so I have to use per-website proxies to get localized content and avoid geo-block.

    It is not 100% correct though, so feel free to report a bug it you spot that.

  • Did something change over the past few days such that the site no longer functions through TOR?

    Anonymous

    It works.

    Let me guess: if you copy-pasted archiveiya74codqgiixo33q62qlrqtkgmcitqx5u2oeqnmn5bpcbiyd.onion from wikipedia, it won’t work because it contains a zero-width space character inside.

  • Hi, could you have a look why pages from steamcommunity won't archive? Here's an example, the page "The updated Steam Mobile App is now available" is stuck in submit. Thanks for the great work and site!

    Could you tell the url of the page? I see no failed pages from steamcommunity

  • please add support for showing sensitive content from mastodon screenshots.

    Anonymous

    It is supported.

    But. Mastodon is not detected automatically, there is a list of domains which may be incomplete. Just mail me where you see it is not supported yet.

  • Pretty please remove the recent restrictions for archiving Twitter. It's practically useless for archiving Twitter now. I just archived someone's media page and it only captured their first 4 tweets.

    Anonymous

    I know, it need to be remade almost from scratch because of the changes on Twitter side. Old code resulted in loading spinner and no content at all.

  • "It needs accounts, otherwise instagram redirects to the login page or shows a fake 404 page. Accounts do not live long." I've entered the full instagram url, all i get is "Not Found (yet?)". what does this mean? the provided ig acount i entered is public not private

    Anonymous

    This means it has tried 10 times and given up.You didn’t specify an account for the archiver to log in to instagram, it’s just not implemented

    Those are not missing images but missing ad blocks.

  • I notice on the /wip pages when I archive something from a news site, most of the time is spent loading various trackers, assets that are never displayed like videos, etc. Why not only load what's needed to render content? Not commenting on the state of the web here, just the performance of the archiver.

    Anonymous

    Known trackers are skipped (their lines are gray instead of green)

  • Why can't Instagram pages be archived anymore? I try to save one and then its like "Sorry this webpage is not available."

    Anonymous

    Instagram and FaceBook are broken most of the time: constantly getting kicked out of the account, being blocked by IP, … Although there aren’t many requests to save pages from there, less than 100 a day. I think there must be quite a few live users who view many more pages in a day. How they do it is not clear to me.

  • can you replace recaptcha for cloudflare turnstile, i constantly have to do captchas and cloudflare turnstile is much faster for me. Thanks

    No, that captcha is too difficult: I can’t select “strawberry cakes” among others just by the picture

  • Are pages of a domain deleted periodically to be sure aren't more than ~1000? Dezgo pages keeps descending. Now they are 1162, previoulsy were 1300 and before where ~2400. Thanks. Those links couldn't be accessed anymore live.

    Anonymous

    The pages are not deleted, but number of search results is limited.

    To get more pages try to split the query to `domain.com/a*`, `domain.com/b*`, etc

  • does archiving a webpage send the user’s IP address to the host site?

    Anonymous

    It was so in old version (before 2019) to get localized versions.

    Now it is useless, because nowadays most of localizations are “this page is not for your country”, so the IP is not passed to the host site.

  • Has Roskomnadzor behavior or amount of removal requests changed since the start of the war?

    Anonymous

    No, there were no removal requests related to this conflict at all. Neither from Roskomnadzor nor from other agencies. Although the stream of requests about ISIS content goes as usual.
