Ask HN: Could you please use Archive.(md|is)

3 points| ThrowReqAwayIt | 5 months ago

I'm super appreciative of everyone who posts archive links to paywalled articles.

Just one now however, archive.ph is blocked in Turkey. Archive.md and archive.is work just fine. Could you use .md or .is as a default?

The theocracy here is getting very good at blocking vpns and we are now playing a game of whackamole every few weeks. Socks, wireguard, tail scale, HTTPoverDNS .. none are reliable anymore. The "president" is wasting billions on trying to censor what we can read and see to control what we think and feel.

You know you can create those links from the source URLs yourself, and then share them here if you want, right?

I guess we all have to get used to BS like this (imposed network filters) more and more :/

And when the other 2 are blocked…?

That's tomorrow's problem, not today's? In the face of tyranny we stay on our toes and try to keep one step ahead of the dictators so we don't end up underneath their boots.

As the UK, USA, and 1/2 of Europe start modeling themselves after erdogan and putina, just know we are all facing the same enemies now.
