Dailymotion will start deleting 12-months-unwatched videos starting soon (archive.ph)

Videos not viewed within the last year will start to be archived, watchable only by the uploader, and then deleted after a three month grace period.

If you have anything you hold dear on Dailymotion, it is well past time to start hoarding it.

ArchiveTeam are "planning" to save everything(?), but they should have started like two months ago, if they have any hope of doing that. Dunno if it's being worked on at all. Plus committing to a multiple petabyte project I assume takes some doing.

I've scarcely visited the site myself, but I looked around for stuff of interest to me and bagged them. yt-dlp works just fine!
