Can anyone recommend a good one-click firefox extension to open an archive copy of the current page?
I'm using it on my phone. It gave me this https://archive.ph/20231026233758/https://theeyewall.com/try... with a few taps.
Even if the site was down for everyone I would comment. Lots of people comment about “hug of death”, for example, and I find it very useful. I know it is not me and I can find an alternative.
And since it’s not down for everyone, only a few, for a new, odd, technical reason, I find it even more relevant to comment about it.
Just like it is useful when people comment when a site is not accessible from a certain country, like BBC sometimes or some YouTube video.
I see these comments often on HN and I always find them useful. They also usually are among the top comments, so likely not downvoted.
That said, I was premature in editing the comment to show my surprise in being downvoting. That, indeed, is against HN etiquete and also it was just some temporary state, since I got many more upvoted since then.
