Reminder to pedes: We prefer archive links to MSM outlets.

They don't deserve the traffic and they have a habit of changing/pulling their stories.

I copy/paste the text of articles to TDW for any articles I wanted to post. I try to put a summary so you don't actually have to catch optical cancer from their terrible journalism

or a SHIT TON of ads, pop ups, "PAY US PLEASE", and "PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR ADBLOCKER PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE".

They get normie tards to pay a subscription, and then STILL liter their screens with ads that takes EONS to load the pages.

If your company advertises like this on MSM and you're reading this, remove your ads, you're just wasting your money on shitty articles anyways.

"PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR ADBLOCKER PLEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASE".

I'm one of those ignoramuses who doesn't even know how to turn off my adblocker.

Not about to go through all the hassle of figuring it out just to read one story. Honestly if they had a "just look at this one ad of ours, one time" button, I'd press it.

I read somewhere that Facebook scripts are pretty big and account for much of that loading time you mentioned.

oh and my personal favorite - when they integrate ads in a way where you can't tell when the article ends/continues vs where the ads are.

I should do this. But as I read it, I add and switch words. I always read “President Donald J. Trump,” whenever they think they can just call him, “Trump.” Referring to dementia boy, I always read “creepy joe,” use “installed,” instead of inaugurated and always add “fraudulently” in front of elected. Whatever happens, fuck the fake news

Please dont. The owner of the archive.is site and associated domains violates privacy and is a piece of shit. Visit the sites with full adblock instead, it costs them money and they get no revenue.

Agree with you there, but I think it's still the lesser of two evils. Link rot and straight-up pulling stories from existence is common among the MSM outlets.

I try to use archive.org with the Wayback machine, but that has some issues, too.

There are not a lot of good alternatives.
