web dev, still unsure of the difference between var and let

I get that, and I even made an account on PeerTube’s GitLab just to submit a tiny fix on a secondary project of theirs, but do you think an average issue submitter would bother? I do not. And it’s not as simple as this process separating the wheat from the chaff, either.

The choice every developer has to make is between having a potentially successful project, with contributors and community engagement, or hosting their stuff on an open platform. PeerTube even has a GitLab of their own, and yet they host their main software on GitHub, because they simply have to.

I’m not 100% following, but if this is content that’s gone from being publicly viewable, uploading it to archive.org seems appropriate (but don’t take my word for it). Though if you do upload, it sounds like just the “part files” or just the “full files” would be enough. You could then also seed the torrent there.

The imgur links you might try uploading to ArchiveTeam’s imgur-grab project. Looking at the tracker, the archival seems currently half dead, but I’m sure they’ll get around to saving what’s left. (Unless it’s dead because imgur made it nigh impossible, which I can definitely imagine)

There is no IA community, so I thought you all might be interested.
