Is it the biggest thing in the world? No. Frankly Google Cache wasn't the same type of archive in the same way that IA and archive.today have been, but, it still is a deprecation of functionality. It in the modern age had the niche of caching certain changes and previous versions of pages. I have know a couple of wikis that were suddenly deleted that used it to restore a lot of pages. I also found a part of a thread that had been deleted durring the Derpi drama too. More of a secondary line of defense rather than primary but still useful.
>>9499 I must say the same to archiveteam. You guys seem to be troopers out there admist the deletion fest everything is becoming lately.
>>9504 Yeah, IA is one major point of failure and just from sheer size isn't the most resistant to pressure. I still have a respect for them and some fleeting fragment of that old left of center libertarian free info philopshihy even if it has frayed in some areas.
>>9496 There is a good bit of PMVs that have ascended like that and weirdly even before the whole push of short form content as of the last three years.
