Is there a need for infinite captcha loop just to view archive on onion site? Also google captcha is terrible, i rarely manage to pass it first time no matter how much i squint my eyes. Is there plan to replace it with something else? Kissmanga for example has their own captcha similar to googles and it works fine.

Yes, I will replace it with something simpler to solve

Archive is now demanding an I'm not a robot verification page every time I try to save a website, and each time it saves it either with a blank page (though screenshot still saves). Only media pages like those of news sites seem to save properly. Is this a new update or what? I don't really mind the I'm not a robot page but the sudden errors in saving certain pages (such as imgur or twitter) is rather sad since archive has been a great tool for me for several years.

Actually there should be less errors and blank pages since the last upgrade.
Please report bug for particular website or page

I looooove your service but I’m wondering if you could remove the tabindex values for the form on the front page for those of us who want to press tab instead of clicking a mouse? Thank you! Anonymous
But.. tabindex is exactly to simplify mouseless UX.
Initially the focus in on the first input field, a single tab moves it to the the second.
The buttons do not have to get focus because pressing Enter then the focus in on the text field does the same as pressing the button,

archive·is and archive·today aren't working. I could access archive·md and the TOR service. Oddly enough blog·archive·today works. Are you guys being targeted by a deplatforming attempt? I wanted to DM you on twitter but couldn't because you don't follow me so I thought this channel would be the best to report the issues without bringing unwanted attention. Keep up the good work!

If you are in one of the coutries with state firewall (Russia, Australia, Iran, …) most likely the older domains (.today, .is, .li, .fo) are blocked there and the newer (.vn, .ph, .md) work. It takes 1-2 years for a domain to get into the blacklist on state firewall (a single page with political propaganda is enough) and it is almost not possible to get out.

The cause apparently is not an a troll attack, but the following sequence of events:
1. Whois of all .FO domains have recently been changed to gudrun@nic.fo, probably for some data protection compliance (my fault is I did not notice the change)
2. The robots of “crawling security companies”, which do crawl the Internet for movie and mp3 names started sending email reports to NIC.FO instead of me
3. As the archive has by far more content than the rest of .FO internet segment, the number of emails with “illegal reports” has overthrown their capacity
4. They came up with the optimal solution to delete the domain

I see the new .MD domain (archive md) and 9 months ago you said (archive is) would stop working but it's still going strong. Any backstory on the domains, which ones we can expect to keep going, other aliases that we don't know about, etc? Also I cannot type the domain name with a dot, your link checker says not to include links. Maybe that's a tumblr issue. Anonymous
Based on the story I can only predict that there will be approximately one trouble with domains per year and each fifth trouble will result in domain loss.
The forecast is no one of the current domains (with the exception of .onion ones) will work in the next 20 years timeframe, but there will be other domains.
I see it as an imminent problem and can only accept that.
The domain system is managed by the people with the commercial mindset so they optimize they workflow either for more money or for spending less time for the fixed work. If one of the domains requires them to read many silly emails they are happy to delete the domain. There are many attackers who know and use it, for profit (with a strategy to take control over a deleted domain and sell it later as it happened with archive.ec) or just to deplatform a website which they do not like.
Another problem is the domains are used on state firewalls for geo-blocking, some of the domains are blocked in Russia, some other in Australia, etc, while the website is still accessible using other domains. So to say even the active domains are half-dead already.
Unfortunately, any of these two problems prevent implementing some nice features, such as embed codes.

Excuse me, your website seems to be having problems archiving pages on the Spacebattles forums. Every time I try to archive a page, I get a network error. Mind taking a look, please? Anonymous

Hello. When archiving Twitter, if there is a sensitive image, the message "This media may contain sensitive material." will be displayed and the image will not be saved. I want to be able to save this image. Can you fix it? Thank you. Anonymous
Could you provide an example?

Please come back with the domain Archive. IS Anonymous
.IS domain will likely stop working soon

How do I use the bookmarlet? I have no idea what "drag to toolbar" means. What toolbar? Where am I supposed to drag it? I'm using Microsoft Edge. Anonymous
