Using Archive.org doesn’t work on medium posts and ideally I want to archive every post. The blog I’m trying to archive is https://itsairborne.com in case the posts go down. Googling how to backup medium posts only gives me articles on how to do it if it were my blog. I found this extension called Monolith of Web that allows you to backup a website using the Rust tool Monolith and I just went to each article and clicked the extension and saved them all one by one
Write a scraper using python and selenium or something. You may have to manually log in as part of it

which of the posts didn’t work on archive.org wayback machine? I tried your post “How Can You Clean the Air” and it worked, though took a bit of time due to a couple of redirecting
Oh weird whenever i tried using it on of his posts it wouldnt archive. Its not my blog
Does this actually modify the files when monolith embeds everything into one file?
Maybe some alternative frontend and then the regular methods like wget?
Good find on the solution, there’s some good alternatives from the github Monolith as well. However, MoW looks great, too bad it’s Chrome only from what I can see :(
Yeha i had to get on chrome just for this :/ hopefully someone forks it into a firefox addon
Pose this question to chat gpt 3.5 or 4. Ask it to assist in making a (python?) script to do this. Feed it errors, and you can get there pretty quickly and learn along the way.
Lol, downvoted for…?
