[users] Question: link rot, how are you going about it?

[ew.gemini]

Esteemed Geminauts,

I have written about the link rot I encountered, here:
=> gemini://ew.srht.site/en/2021/20211128-link-rot.gmi
I have seen Alex' repsonse
=> gemini://nytpu.com/gemlog/2021-11-28.gmi
I checked geminispace.info, too.
But I'm sure, I've missed some.

I have written followups
=> gemini://ew.srht.site/en/2021/20211211-flightlog-10.gmi
=> gemini://ew.srht.site/en/2021/20211215-flightlog-11.gmi

and I have started to make local copies of posts I find useful
=> gemini://ew.srht.site/library/index.gmi

But this is only my little attempt to feel better at stuff I
care about.

I found this as another possible solution:
=> gemini://text.eapl.mx/introducing-antennazine


So questions to all:
1. Have you encountered link rot in gemini space?

2. Did you try to find the "lost" content by some search? If so,
how?

3. Die you try to deal with it by some means (local caching or
whatever)? Would you mind to describe?


I'm wondering, if there are /better/ solutions than just
archiving other peoples capsules routinely ... and of course,
then there is this plaque called "the net does not forget".
Which is good (finding old Gems lately?) and bad (never getting
rid of something stupid one did or said ... ). So the library
approach might be a bit better, because it is selective and
holds copies of single posts/documents only.


Any other ideas?
Thanks in advance,

and a Happy New Year, for those who adhere to the Gregorian
Calender :-)

Cheers,
