what do you find is smoother about it?

I am considering it but the margins aren't great, I'd need to charge $150/yr at least for it to be worth it until I reach economies of scale, and I'm not sure that people would pay that.

High quality archiving is hard and takes like 1min/URL of CPU and burns a lot of IPs.

hi! I can't see OP's post but yes ArchiveBox is a nonprofit. I do some consulting so I can pay my bills and keep writing open source.

correction* the stat() call is always necessary for the check, but the os.path.* methods ignore the exceptions and return False for those cases

🤷‍♂️ the cost of doing business when there's no official migration tool to make it smoother

I'm asking about default passive focal length mid-session, not what they do when you "attend" to them.

"up close" ~feels like focusing on a black sheet held a few feet in front of you

"far away" ~feels like a 1000-yard stare into a distant overcast night sky

In fact I think I just got rate limited by PyPI because I got overexcited about being able to release things faster...
