Actually, my first foray into this sort of thing would’ve probably been a bit earlier when an old comic site I used to frequent got bought out and everyone had to scramble to archive everything off it, when I had already seen a bunch of sites go down beforehand and I guess I just forgot about the instability of things that seem stable.

Ooof, that's really rough - it sucks a whole lot when a place you cared about is suddenly gone one day. Even though I'm all in favour of making backups and archiving things rather than take for granted that they'll stick around, I hate how necessary it is, you know?

Best of luck with the work on your Neocities and potential archiving! 🍀
