Yeah, archive.today came out of gamergate, so there's a very good chance that the owner sees their mission as being to help jumpstart fascism. In a world where the truth is paywalled but the lies are free, becoming more useful on the left might have been a real problem for them.

Couldn't you host it somewhere yourself? I guess there's a question of trust there, but trust is the reason Wikipedia has decided to stop using archive.today

I would probably use the Wayback Machine for that. You can give it the page's address and tell it to make a copy.

The Wayback machine is good, but it has limitations archive.today subverted. That's why people are looking for alternatives specifically to the latter

When I said that Wikipedia should take it seriously and rip off the bandaid as quick as possible when the DDoS's started, a few didn't believe me when I said there was no reason to trust the content anymore if archive[.]today decided malicious activity using their traffic was okay. The owner's ehtics (or lack thereof) showed that nothing stopped them from maliciously altering the content either, making any reason to hang on to the archive site null and void.

To those people doubting my perspective: Called it.
