I can’t say enough good things about the Wayback Machine! It’s like a time machine for the internet. I love being able to check out old versions of my favorite websites or see how things looked years ago. It's super easy to use, and it’s helped me out so many times, whether for research or just out of curiosity. Huge shoutout to the Internet Archive for all the hard work they put into preserving our digital history. If you haven’t tried it yet, definitely give it a go—you won’t regret it!

Quick question: I have been using the service to read books, but I noticed that I am unable to access any books today. Is the the book collection website working properly? Thanks! Best, Connie

Unfortunately most services on the Archive are still offline due to the recent attack on our servers. We're working to get them back up!

it does work, but the wayback machine is down right now because of a ddos attack, that's why you can't access this right now. you should also check your email in HaveIBeenPwned if you have an account on the wayback machine.

Everything is good, but it's better to open new tab beside current.

You can set this preference under the General Settings, look for "Show Features in" New Tab, Same Tab, or New Window.

I love it, but I wish there was a way to tailor the "auto save page" option to only save certain URLs instead of only being able to exclude. I mainly use it to archive writing on a few websites, and I end up having to do sometimes each chapter manually.

This is the extension that should be used when teaching how to design any extensions. It just works, but the simple layout that's easy to use and understand. THANK YOU for updating to MV3! I was coming here to see if it was still in danger and was going to offer to update it for you haha. But you did it! Only suggestion is a personal preference and that's that I wish the popup width was a little wider, but that's cosmetic only, the feature set is fantastic though!

Thanks for your kind words. It was not easy to update to MV3. You're welcome to look over the source code and help with other tasks if you'd like!

Am interested in looking at old youtube snapshots but the archive.org website is very slow, it takes forever to load. Please fix the loading speed. Thank you
