Can't you automate it from a list of URLs? For things that have been taken down already, maybe you can archive the archived version on a backup-archive?

One could make a zog-proof archiving system by dumping the stuff in incremental zip files and torrenting them, and saving their hash to popular crypto blockchains to have timestamped proof of their content. Nice little project for someone to spend a summer holiday on.

Possibly; I’ll have to look into it.

>a backup-archive?

Finding one is going to be the main problem. The Wayback isn’t suited because it already refuses to archive some of the links I’ve tried to save. And anywhere else is apparently as ephemeral as archive.today, because the Wayback is government approved and anything else isn’t.

If you have the hard drive space you can host your archives yourself:

There is self-hosted archive software that is similar to archive.org or archive.is:
