Neocities.org
Curious about people's code uploading/website writing process... specifically whether you have local copies of files that you upload to Neocities servers... I am considering downloading a brute copy of everything just to be safe but also kind of enjoy this notion of being so untethered to the site that should the server go down (for a while/indefinitely), I'm fine with everything being "lost to the sands of time"

WILD LAUGHTER — I only just now realized/found? there's a "download entire site" button...
once an hour, first try failed (several files missing)
i have a local copy of my site but it's because i don't want to use the neocities editor
what I used to do was use a node.js script that connected to a simple WYSIWYG editor and used the neocities API to upload the generated page :P
torn between the urge to archive everything all the time, and the acceptance and romanticisation of the impermanence of everything that is
My site is all created offline and then uploaded.
I just use the Neocities editor. Works for me. Sometimes, I use archive.org
I use the neocities editor for small stuff, but for larger pages and projects I develop them then upload. Very very scattered process. I will backup everything at some point though.
I write things in a text editor and paste into files that I want to update. But for new pages I just do everything in a text editor and then upload the file.
