  Is it? It was its own private entity and now it's offline probably forever. Edit: I think it'd be far better off on Wikipedia than Twitter

      Backed up on centralized gitlab and centralized archive.org, huh? My point is that the comment was praising independent services when it doesn't make sense: bash.org, the independent service, shutting down and people want to store backups in a more trustworthy centralized service, much like the two backups you linked.

    Yes, for the reason mentioned but also because it has a longer lifespan than Wikipedia and Twitter to date.
