-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-@podmin@joindiaspora.com: # Hello JoinDiaspora there is some unfortunate news to share. Feneas will be dissolved and as Joindiaspora is one of the services. JD will also be shut down on 1 March. This is unless we can find someone who wants to take over the service. If you think you can handle the task please contact us via [hq@feneas.org](mailto:hq@feneas.org). You can find the original post below or via https://git.feneas.org/feneas/Feb 09 18:08

schestowitz@Jakub Klawiter You cannot simply archive your profile by saving a single link to the user account link itself. Internet Archive doesn’t automaticallly crawl the entire profile, it just saves that one page.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzYou CAN save your public posts to the Internet Archive, most easily by requesting and downloading your account’s profile data, and then using tools to create and submit archive requests.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzThose archives will not include comments to the posts. This is most useful where Diaspora* links have been shared elsewhere — people will still at least be able to view the original post. Details below.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzI’ve covered this in the Diaspora Migration Tips and Questions Thread linked above.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzThe process is … not entirely straightforward, but works well given use of Linux shell tools.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzFor an example from my own Joindiaspora account, using a specific post as an example, the links here show the original, archived, and federated content:Feb 09 18:20
schestowitz    Original Joindiaspora postFeb 09 18:20
schestowitz    Internet Archive without comments.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitz    Archive Today with comments — manually submitted.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitz    Glasswings federated version without federation of older comments (several recent comments exist).Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzI’ve entirely automated the Internet Archive archival. Ensuring Archive Today and alternate instance federation is still partially manual. More below.Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzTo archive your account data:Feb 09 18:20
schestowitzOn your own Diaspora* Pod, go to your Profile → Settings page, scroll to the bottom, and scroll to the bottom. Under Export data, select “Request my profile data” for posts, and “Request my photos” for photos. Check back after a while (may be minutes, may be hours, occasionally longer) for the download link. You will NOT be emailed a notification, you have to return to check the page.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzThere are multiple reports for this not working for profiles with large amounts of data. See earlier comments in this thread. I have successfully exported roughly 2,800 posts accumulated over 10 years.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzDownload and save the link locally. The archive format is a compressed JSON file. This can be pocessed with a utility called jq. I’ve posted a few useful recipies under the #jq and #JSON hashtags recently. It can be installed on Linux, MacOS (via Homebrew), Windows (via Cygwin or WSL) and Android systems (via Termux).Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzTo create the original canonical URLs for each postFeb 09 18:21
schestowitzUse this jq recipe:Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzjq -r '.user .posts[] | "https://joindiaspora.com/posts/\(.entity_data .guid )"'Feb 09 18:21
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell- ( status 404 @ https://joindiaspora.com/posts/\(.entity_data .guid ) )Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzNote that jq runs against the archive data itself. I’m assuming you know how to to do this, if not, ask.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzContent can be saved at the Internet Archive using a URL of the form https://web.archive.org/save/<URL>, where <URL> is the specific web page you wish to save. These can be submitted automatically, without human intervention.Feb 09 18:21
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell- ( status 523 @ https://web.archive.org/save/<URL )Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzYou can feed that to the Internet Archive using a simple shell script.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzAssuming your archive exists as “DIASPORA_EXTRACT.json.gz”, you can run the following bash command. It relies on jq and curl, see that both are installed on your system.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitztime gunzip < DIASPORA_EXTRACT.json.gz |Feb 09 18:21
schestowitz    jq -r '.user .posts[] | "https://joindiaspora.com/posts/\(.entity_data .guid )"' |Feb 09 18:21
schestowitz    while read urlFeb 09 18:21
schestowitz    doFeb 09 18:21
schestowitz        curl https://web.archive.org/save/${url}Feb 09 18:21
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell- ( status 523 @ https://web.archive.org/save/${url} )Feb 09 18:21
schestowitz        sleep 2Feb 09 18:21
schestowitz    doneFeb 09 18:21
schestowitzThere is a 2-second “sleep” to try to avoid overloading archive.org. This will process about 1800 URLs per hour. Leave it running in a terminal or screen session until it completes.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzAs I said, that’s fully automated but does not include comment threads on posts.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzIf you do want to capture comments you’ll need to submit posts to Archive.Today. There’s no automated mechanism for that so far as I’m aware, and there are occasional CAPTCHA requests.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzTo address this, I’ve written a Diaspora Post Abstract GeneratorFeb 09 18:21
schestowitzThat creates a short summary of posts in the form:Feb 09 18:21
schestowitz    TitleFeb 09 18:21
schestowitz    Paragraph quoteFeb 09 18:21
schestowitz    URL on my new (Glasswings) pod.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitz    Original, Wayback Machine, and Archive Today linksFeb 09 18:21
schestowitz    Original Posting dateFeb 09 18:21
schestowitzLike this for a 2015 post of mine:Feb 09 18:21

schestowitz    (2015-02-17 06:07)Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzI’ve been breaking these up by year and posting these limited to my own view only and manually clicking through links and commenting on old posts referencing my new account to ensure federation and archival of links. See the post above for details. This takes an hour or two per 100 posts in my experience (I’m up through 2019, and have 2020 and 2021 still to go.)Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzEventually I’ll be posting a selection of those posts as an index/archive similar to this. That makes finding and referencing my own older content far easier, given that Diaspora* lacks search and is poorly indexed by major Web search engines.Feb 09 18:21
schestowitzI’ve also created a few other jq recipes for managing contacts and recovering source text from posts and comments.Feb 09 18:21
