Wouldn't a web scrape be more efficient than a large image, perhaps displayed in a frame (and also text copy/paste/searchable)?

I love the archiving too.

What do you mean "drown out the smaller ones"?

Also, do you have a RSS feed? (For others to read/download/collect/backup your content.)

Text is more efficient, but getting it all to line up and look as nice as the author's intended is difficult without human participation.

Saidit is one of the smaller Internet communities. If I turned a script to saidit, my posts would be all anyone saw. On Voat, it only takes about 100 posts per day to be the number one poster. I have accounts on reddit that are doing thousands per day.

It wouldn't be fair to the members of the community or the owners to expose them to that type of firehose volume.

SVG is a better image format, because the text is readable.

I will definitely look into that. Ty.
