Dear [Lemmy],
As reported last month, Vice Media will no longer publish on its flagship website, Vice.com, resulting in many journalists furiously trying to save their work before the feared deletion of the entire website. Similarly, news sites like Gawker and The Messenger have faced similar fates in recent years—websites currently devoid of reporting or articles.
The loss of these websites is a reminder that access to information must remain a fundamental right for all who seek it.
Thankfully, the Wayback Machine has become a vital resource in the fight to preserve media and knowledge for all. Journalists can save links to their works on the public archive, researchers can access original pieces of reporting, and nostalgic readers can revisit old favorites. And as the fight against misinformation and disinformation continues, the preservation of access to the historical record is more important than ever.

PS: I would link the email, but it has my name in it. Also, if you're a millionaire the Archive would probably appreciate like half of it, and more normal people can do five bucks a month (but I get it you might be broke!). Donation link
Does anyone know how light the Docker is? Will it stress out an underpowered device like a low end, but not ancient, Synology?
It's no different than running the app directly, performance wise. It does use more disk storage because the docker image is packaged with everything it needs to run instead of relying on your OS libraries.
As far as I can tell it’s always a VM or a Docker VM.
