@enkiusz And I feel like this is such a special part of the web, the GOOD part, the preserving of information. It's definitely deteriorated. |
@enkiusz Oh yes. I remember some discussions about how this world of frameworks killed off that early "learn web dev by looking at view source" and people kind of hand waved that off ("who does that anymore", "there are better ways to learn", etc) But this is the other side of that. So many of these apps/websites are just broken if you try to archive/save them.
