Very easy setup: https://fedihum.org/@lavaeolus/113882223453058587
Especially for any kind of research data:
https://zenodo.org (run by CERN, well-established, you can private uploads)

@lavaeolus The image is a poster promoting web archiving. The top section says "Things disappear from the internet," with a small note explaining that sometimes things are deliberately removed. Below this, it asks "Care about stuff on the web?" with three pink lines pointing to a list of examples of things that might disappear: art, zines, fan fiction, videos/TikToks, photo galleries, social media hashtags, posts from deceased loved ones, museum and archival materials, and examples of cultural memory such as human rights resistance, joy, and anger. The next section states "You need to act to archive it." The bottom section says "Anyone can do it—this zine shows you how," with arrows pointing to the words "Free!" and "Take a bunch!" The poster is titled "DIY Web Archiving Zine" and lists the authors' names.

@lavaeolus @quinnanya @Literature_Geek just wondering if ArchiveBox was considered at all? I did not see it mentioned. https://archivebox.io/
This guide seems more reliant on an external service...
@lavaeolus @quinnanya @Literature_Geek @jessienab Nice to see the issues we were concerned with in library school 20 years ago are still valid concerns...thank goodness for zines, pirates, and DIYers for saving culture...again...
@lavaeolus @quinnanya @Literature_Geek @jessienab tyankq for the reminders. I also need to achive some ole photos
@lavaeolus @quinnanya @Literature_Geek @jessienab oh hell yeah, good stuff

No better feeling than reading a zine cover, thinking 'this feels like a Quinn Dombrowski et al joint', and being absolutely confirmed in that feeling when opening the zinebakery page. Love the SUCHO references in the zine!

Archiving isn't just about uploading to a website and calling it a day.
No website will magically last forever. Not even archive.org. Every website goes down eventually.
First and foremost archiving is about downloading… to your own hard drive and keeping it safe. Everything else is secondary.
Sharing is important. Uploading is good. But preservation itself should not rely on websites.
Good thing hard drives are cheap.

Another issues is having the digital equivalent of paper. Until we have that, digital material will continue to be in peril.
@humbird0 @lavaeolus @quinnanya @Literature_Geek @jessienab @parsonsj actually if you read the zine, they talk about exactly that!

Yeah, it's helpful to surface the main points for people who don't click.
