Google will no longer back up the Internet: Cached webpages are dead - Lemmy for LUS

Can someone explain to me if this is a bad or good thing please? 🥺
Bad. Having google archive a page every time in indexed was handy.
So handy and for so many different reasons. Sometimes what you needed was specifically on that one webpage and sometimes for whatever reason you just can’t access that website. In those cases the cached feature was usually the only way to access the content.
