Is there anyway for them to be recovered? The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:. Sorry, something went wrong.
I've noticed the same thing, not sure it's much of an archive if it doesn't actually keep archived deleted stories. I've seen more than one reddit thread talking about a deleted fic with link til ff2ebook with the archived story no longer being available.
And one author where I backed up multiple deleted stories no longer have them, weirdly enough it only shows one story under his name and it's one that is currently online, and it hasn't archived his 13 other stories. So it seems like the site isn't actually actively archiving stuff at all, or at least not doing it consistently. The thing is that I am only allowed gb of storage with my web host, so once in a while, when I hit over gb I have to do a clean up.
I know this is not exactly the best for an archive, but to begin with I kept the files mostly to use as a cache and not have to redownload everything everytime, the archive thing was a bonus.
It's really terrible, honestly, is there no way you can increase the storage? Maybe work on aggressively compressing everything and changing formats to something that takes less room. I remember someone uploading a siterip of FFnet a few years ago where they fit the entire site in a little more than GB.
Worst case you should save them offline, and then upload them elsewhere somehow, or just store them until the day you have a solution with more online storage. I get that storage isn't free, but you can't call it an archive at all with that approach, quite frankly, because it means users really can't trust the service. And when you make it a popularity contest, it means that those fics that needs it the most won't be saved longer term.
Instead it will only be recent fics and the fics that are most likely to be reuploaded elsewhere anyway. There's already a bunch of reddit threads with dead links, which is kinda sad. I think it's something you should state on your site, so people doesn't rely on it more than they should.
If it is a monetary concern you could also state that, and maybe have as a donation goal an actual permanent archive, which I think is what's needed more than anything. There are plenty of ways to create ebooks from sites, whereas backup archives are in short supply.
I'm probably being a bit too harsh, but I feel like if you call something an archive, you have a bit of a responsibility to live up to that. I remember someone fit GB worth of eBooks in about GB the whole archive back in by storing it in a zip file. Also, they didn't store it as an eBook which is the purpose of FF2ebook. However, they only just stored in a.
Also guys, I am not dropping the original idea of making FanFiction. My older solution worked before but stopped working since Cloudflare was updated once again. Right now, I am reverse engineering FanFiction. I found all the API's backends already which were encrypted in the app. I'm on a good lead so far. The file is only stored for a fraction of a second on startup. Right now, I just need to figure which lines deletes the file.
Then I will prevent it from being deleted, retrieve the file with the 16bytes encryption key inside. This will get me to snoop on the traffic, the app makes with the server and get the Api key too. This would be even faster than originally as they really care about their android users, i've heard.
Well, literally any solution is better than deleting fics. What about on-the-fly conversion to ebook format, rather than storing in it? Though if they were just agressively enough compressed the ebooks format could still work, and as a stopgap measure, maybe having it in only epub or mobi, rather than both, whichever takes up less space.
On-the-fly conversion would require to store fics in another form before conversion e. Also on-the-fly conversion from FF. I found an old backup from Nov on my PC.
If you wanna look into finding a specific fic. You will need the fic ID though. Let me know if this doesn't work, i've never created a torrent before lol. Thats awesome, I checked it works!
