[Feature] Replace bookmarks with archived links #8

Open mzso opened 6 years ago

mzso commented 6 years ago

Hello!

A neat feature would be to replace the links instead with archived links for those that have them. (webarchive, archive.is, ...)

I had actually considered this feature before. I am not sure how complicated it is to find out if something exists on archive.org or similar.

I don't either. However i ran into an addon that's doing something vaguely similar: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/archiveror/

oops! I wasn't clear enough, sorry. I did not mean to take or replace from an archive.

What are you talking about? He clearly responded to what the issue is about. Replacing dead links with an archive service's link.

@originalpizamoto I started the issue and it's about what I said, stop hijacking it. You can start your own if you want something totally different.
