YN hug of death?

I wonder if there is a chance for HN to contribute some aid for sites like this, archive.org, and others whenever their links are on the frontpage.

Seconding this idea. IA especially is an astronomical gold mine and its benefits to humanity as a whole are immeasurable, I'm sure it could use non-monetary help beside the usual donation campaigns.
I’d be surprised if a big project like PG went down for serving a small static HTML file. I’ve only ever known them have problems when there’s been something more fundamental, or if you were in Germany between 2019 and 2021.
