Anypony can get started with something! Here is a simple (and incomplete for more in depth stuff) guide to for some suggestions on starting out.

Archiving:
Simply starting out:
Individualized archiving and keeping of records (especially interested in basic accounts and timelines of websites, see:>>4085). If you have any memories to share, that is nice as well! Even old screencaps and old accounts of what a place was like! {If thread seems too busy or it seems a bit off form main objectives, I again point to /culture/:>>10356)


For videos: Youtube (and other many other websites!) YT-DLP is the best thing available right now.

Don't forget the comments!
yt-dlp with --write-comments or this script here: https://github.com/egbertbouman/youtube-comment-downloader which That we had been using in the past rather intensively. NOTE: both not working for me as of writing this, uncertain if broken by a Youtube update or just something wrong on my end, don't have much time to test at the moment.



For full websites, the best option is grab-site from the Archive Team. It is a specialty tool that archives websites in the WARC file format:

Note that Windows support is experimental.
