I found it valuable to read archive.is owner's blog: https://lj.rossia.org/users/archive_today/

Personally I am finding this situation problematic and am seeking immediate replacement. Wayback Machine seems better but I am thinking of something that is less clunky, and has a good API. I think I am just going to pay for https://perma.cc/.
