Well, they aren't closing the forum until the end of the year, so that's plenty of time for people to scrape it.

    The issue is making it accessible for people new to it to be able to find.

    while they could keep it up as an archive, theyre a company after all. giving a 6 month notice beforehand is a nice thing these days, i can probably scrape the site to some degree, index it, and serve it with a basic file server, and im not that skilled compared to other people in these regards

    so if the community is dedicated, i bet they will probably spin up an archival project

    i am not saying this to give the company a pass, i am saying it for people who fear it will be hard to archive
