Hello, I archive various sites and services, one of them being YouTube. Since I am (sometimes) just one person doing this, I tend to grab content from niche communities with the goal being cultural preservation. If there is something I have archived and you would rather it stay offline, contact me and we can work something out. I will not be accepting submissions anymore expect for unique cases, and please do not ask me if I have "xyz" video, artist, etc saved for the answer is probably "no". I will always upload (and reupload) what I have, but it will take time. I will check my social media bi-weekly or monthly, my email is a better option for quicker contact. Tools I use: - yt-dlp - gallery-dl - jq - Linux / OpenBSD - Shell scripts Sometimes I will (and have) uploaded content that contains offensive material. Unfortunately, history can be very ugly. I will try to provide warnings and context from now on. This channel is a mirror, see my archive.org This is a non-profit effort.
