ill also remind you to use the archive team warrior to help them out, if you have spare server space.
it helps them archive content in closed services like reddit, telegram, youtube and such.
furthermore, if you have a ton of spare storage space and free time, consider helping back up their archive.
How do I go about this? I've got 30TB available, 24/7 uptime. It's not much but it might help.
In case you haven't looked into it yourself yet...
ArchiveTeam are independent from IA, but their stuff mostly does end up uploaded into the Wayback Machine. Storage space (like yours) isn't usually what they are looking for, but rather the internet bandwidth and "virgin" IP address of aforementioned "warriors" running their code to scrape different websites, and then uploading the results to AT's servers, where they are collected and eventually uploaded again to IA.
