"So one way or another all the articles will come back."The sad news is, all links to past LJ articles are now broken and will likely remain broken forever. What is this Pantheon site/page they serve now? We don't know, but we've asked.
One of us crafted a script to download the entire site before it went offline (in case we can get the site back or at least a copy of it online... as we did with Quinstreet half a decade back). Linux Gizmos managed to save about a decade's work that way; old articles came back online under another domain.
In the case of LJ, there might also be some reprieve; "I and a couple others from LJ already have full backups of the site," one person told us. "If we cannot get the domain back from its current owners, my intent is to get it up under a new LJ archive domain."
So one way or another all the articles will come back. Long live GNU/Linux, long live LJ and long live journalism. ⬆
