There used to be no problem archiving a Mastodon thread in the #internetArchive #waybackMachine. Now on recent threads it just shows a blank page:
https://web.archive.org/web/20240318210031/https://mastodon.social/@lrvick/112079059323905912
Or is it my browser? Does that page have content for others?
I just tried archiving it again, here’s a list of the files and resources it supposedly did archive in the process (same results though)…

Addendum: Love whoever it is that decided to downvote a literal log file. Have a blessed day.
Thanks for digging into the problem. So in the end, it looks like you’ve worked it out that the content is getting archived but it’s just not rendering, correct? It used to render. Apparently the Mastodon JavaScript got too fancy and broke the use of archival.
I wondered at first if Mastodon was deliberately archive-hostile. The sensible ways to block archival are host-specific¹, so I guess it’s still unclear.
¹ (for lack of better phrasing… I don’t mean to imply it’s sensible to block archival to begin with)
It really is a shame the archived version isn’t rendering, as it really does need to be archived. It’s really shitty of any medical provider to reject patients based on not owning a smartphone.
