Hacker News Reader

That sounds like something that would interest archive.org

I'll look into that.

TBH I would be interested in migrating and hosting the website at my own expense.

Many thanks, I've got it on my NAS now. Fond memories of reading UF.

Taken a copy - thank you! I'll probably throw up a mirror of the strips on my site at some point.

For others, this archive is 1997 to 2013 and is images of the strip only. I stopped reading UF around that time I think. Like many things on the web, it's only really relatable to a person for a certain period of time, before you move on (XKCD was the same, used to regularly read it, now I hardly do.)

I bought on of his books but it’s not the complete series.

UF also provided text transcripts which were searchable - did you get those too?

I was not aware that was a thing :( Maybe I can do something with OCR/ML
