This article is meant to be about how an average 'teen can archive gems because nothing on the internet is permanent!
 
== Local archiving ==
Truly nothing on the internet is permanent, not even archive sites. That's why it's important to save stuff (e.g. images, videos, and even entire webpages) to your local hard drive and to preferably make backups. You can use special software for this part.
 
* Ctrl+S on your browser - Ugly
* Singlefile extension ([https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/mpiodijhokgodhhofbcjdecpffjipkle Chrome]/[https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/single-file Firefox])  - Good overall. Saves the page as you see it in one .html file. Saves full images if you open them.
* Another option: {{quote|>he doesn't have a custom-programmed live sharty-compatible vichan archiver}} {{quote|>[[oldtroon|shiggy]] saving individual threads}}
* [https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp yt-dlp] is a youtube-dl fork that allows you to save audio and video from YouTube and many other sites.
* [https://archivebox.io/ ArchiveBox] allows you to run your own website archiver locally (can also apparently import from browser bookmarks or history).
* Learn how to scrape websites with Python or whatever you selfish little fuck.
 
== Archive sites ==
DO NOT exclusively use archive.org to save webpages. Uploading files there seems to be okay THOUGH. Use archive.ph for saving pages instead
 
* https://web.archive.org/save
* https://archive.today
* https://ghostarchive.org (tranny archive)
 
===Archive.today/Archive.ph===
If you're fed up with the snail speed of the Internet Archive, or wary of using it since 4chan was blacklisted on it<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/4chan.org</ref> then you WILL opt for [https://archive.today Archive.today].
 
====Simple archive====
To do a simple archive, simply paste the thread link into the field that reads "My url is alive and I want to archive its content" and then press the button that says "save". This alone is okay for things like history documentation, especially if a thread is looooong (like [[Giggly Goonclown#The Thread|this one]]).
 
====Archiving media====
If you [[Science Lover Soyjak | HATE being stuck with thumbnails]], then you can open each original image as it appears in the thread in a new tab and archive each individual link it the same manner you would a thread. You can attempt to archive videos in the same way, but they will NOT embed on Archive.today and are NOT downloadable from the archive.
 
====Video tutorial====
If you found the text tutorial hard to follow, here's a video tutorial. [[File:Soyarchivetutorial480p.mp4|thumb|left|After following this tutorial, put the archived thread link in a place you can easily have access to later.]]
