Yeah, there’s many such archiving sites – they’re intended to archive indefinitely after the original disappears. Most news sites have exceptions for them to bypass paywalls, so they work well for that too: just past the original link into the archive, and it’s either already there, or you wait a minute for them to fetch it.
