Well I know for 4chan, each thread is ephemeral and depending on how active a board is, the thread will be deleted. Which I think is the challenge citing it. Since even a day or two after finding it, it can be lost.
- strictnein 8y agoThis is directly addressed in the comment you're responding to. > "And you have things like the internet archive or Webcite[0] to make sure the web document doesn't disappear."
- komali2 8y agoDoes that even work on 4chan? On /b/ threads can vanish in less than an hour. There used to be specialized sites such as 4chanarchive to fill the gap, but last I checked most are dead.
- setr 8y agoAfaik there are various ones still existing, but dunno how ephemeral they are (eg archive.moe supports /b/), and how much they miss And then you just webarchive archive the archive sites instead of 4chan directly :-)
- TeMPOraL 8y agoWell, this particular thread still exists; somewhere in the Tweets there there was a link posted to an archived version.
