LFGSS and Microcosm shutting down 16th March 2025 (the day before the Online Safety Act is enforced)

Will the site be archived and able to view in its final form? It will it be "the true death"?

True death... to run the site read-only will have ongoing costs, but I cannot expect this to come with future donations.

I'm open to someone crawling the public visible site in it's totality and making a workable archive that looks like this.

You should know that the Archive Team https://wiki.archiveteam.org/ are already crawling us, and we are on their Deathwatch https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Deathwatch#2025 and that I've said I will add them to the allow list and ensure they can fully archive us. I don't know today how that will be accessed.

I am fine saying to the people on here that if you want to run a recursive wget, feel free to do so.

You should archive everything that hits https://www.lfgss.com and all files / attachments that come from https://lfgss.microcosm.app/ . The final archive will be somewhere between 1-2TB.

Actually, scratch this... I'll do it and will make a torrent available.
