Hugged to death? I can’t access the page.

Seems likely, same for me.

Same for me. I cannot access it either.

I am able to.

Have you tried just letting it load? Took maybe more than 30 seconds for the page to load for me, but it did load eventually.

That website is really struggling. Very tempting to go to a mirror on archive.org to view it :)

This seems very distinct from Internet Archive in the US, I wonder how separate it is.

Internet Archive Canada (I worked there in 2024) operated like it was a subsidiary, even though I think it was technically an independent organization with some shared directors. Same Slack, same archive.org email domain, etc.

IA.ch has Brewster and Caslon on the board.

I suspect that for the political threats of the current decade the different Internet Archive organisations need to start operating more independently, especially when it comes to funding?

They use Slack? I am kind of surprised. But I am sure on the plus side, that would also mean having to worry about one less uptime.

Slack, Zoom and Google Apps (but not for email) - otherwise basically everything was internally ran.

The Slack has (had?) hundreds of guest accounts due to volunteers and allied organizations. It’s an interesting (and cool) institution!

Ah, good, they are also mirroring the page load speed of the internet archive

Typical for something made in St. Gallen. A sensible web developer from Zurich interested in the topic would have created this website in just a single HTML and an optional CSS file.

Relevant blog post: https://blog.archive.org/2026/05/06/internet-archive-switzer...

> Internet Archive Switzerland joins a growing group of mission-aligned organizations, alongside Internet Archive, Internet Archive Canada, and Internet Archive Europe. Together, these independent libraries strengthen a shared vision: building a distributed, resilient digital library for the world.

Sankt Gallen's more physical archive is worth a visit too: https://www.stiftsbezirk.ch/de/stiftsbibliothek/

Very proud of my alma mater town to be a place for this. It’s much needed infrastructure for Europe.
