We've teamed up with Automattic to fight link rot on the open web. Check out the new Internet Archive Wayback Machine Link Fixer for WordPress. The free plugin preserves pages, redirects broken links to archived versions, and helps ensure the web keeps its memory.

“It’s very important that websites have a memory," said Alexander Rose of Automattic. "When links go dead, in effect, the truth goes dead—especially in the age of AI,”

@internetarchive Automattic is the fifth last (after Amazon, Facebook, Microsoft, & Google) company you should ever consider teaming up with. Have things really gotten that bad? Is there not a way for people to sign up to have their website crawled periodically by archive.org so they don't need to rely on a plugin from a horrifically anti LGBT company? What justifies associating with a company that has this reputation?

@ifrit @internetarchive Yes, that only Misskey & one or two other things can see. It's not a dislike button.

@gabboman @internetarchive @ifrit I really wish there was a dedicated dislike button, because Misskey emote reacts federate to Mastodon as a favorites.

I dislike that decision but it was a compromise.
But also: just one emoji react per post that sucks

@gabboman @internetarchive @ifrit Multiple reactions is the only good thing about Discord (not counting moderation features because that's not the current subject). You can spell words with it. You can "🔧WRENCH🛠️" react someone.

Akko and waf allow multiple because we send just an empjireact activity instead of a like with extras
