not really unfortunately, more aimed at sites that backup 4chan threads and host them like http://archive.moe and programs that archive threads on home users' systems |

03:32

because it's being read into other databases and software systems, need to extract lots of data and store it differently, though the spec does have a folder for warc dumps |

joepie91 |
you can replay threads from a WARC archive, no? |
|
03:39
🔗

danneh_ |
that's fair enough, though none of the proper archivers actually use warc files and the home archivers need to rewrite the html files and move all the files into different folders |

I'll probably go have a good think about it |

aha, they're focused on being a user-friendly archive (searching of metadata and thread content and all sorts of filtering and junk) than saving everything perfectly, might be able to eventually convince them if they get some bigger servers down the line |
