I have an idea for mitigating #linkrot:
A script that takes a #html file (probably blogpost), finds external links, and for each link it creates a popup that appears on mouse hover. This popup includes the link, it's title, publish date, tl;dr (written by you), and buttons to open the link in […]

The Internet we have isn’t good enough for the science we need.
Link rot and content drift undermine reproducibility and trust. DOIs help, but they’re fragile.

The impact on users is significant: existing goo.gl links in documents, videos, and social media are now broken, leading to link rot and loss of valuable information. This highlights the risk of relying on third-party URL shorteners. #LinkRot 4/6

HN discussion on URL lifespan, sparked by Compiler Explorer's broken goo.gl links. Highlights the challenge of persistent links, web archiving, and relying on third-party services for digital infrastructure. #LinkRot 1/5
Trump's NFTs? Watch for #LinkRot when the link goes bad or the website goes down. You purchase no special rights - copyright, moral rights, reuse - without an explicit contractual transfer.

Minting DOIs with @datacite.org ?
A few broken links got me wondering: how can you quickly check which of your DOIs might not resolve?
This tool can help:

Found an item cited as “Blog post, no longer available”. Found the (indeed defunct) URL cited in an earlier paper by one of the same authors. Used that to find the post archived on archive.org; added the archive.org URL to the citation.

7/8 Beyond current politics, the Archive battles "link rot"—the epidemic of broken links across the web.
A Pew study found 38% of web pages from 2013 were gone by 2023.
The Archive fixes 10,000 dead Wikipedia links daily, having restored over 23 million in total.

For example, seeing how many of these PDF links still work would be a measure of how much link rot affects access to taxonomic research. I hope to update this snapshot as I curate the database bionames.org. For more background on academic #linkrot see doi.org/10.31274/jls... by @eve.gd
If you are interested in #linkrot and scientific publishing this may be of interest doi.org/10.5281/zeno.... This is a snapshot of PDF links in my taxonomic database BioNames. I continually update broken links, but this overwrites those links. Hence this snapshot.
