Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

I still have a directory of installers for "useful programs". Some of them probably date back to the 90s and would need dosbox to run.
I have the same and only needed to dip into one time for my WiiManager app to check on my Wii library backup on a external HDD.
I’m sure my Mac can open my 2004 .sit file. Don’t question me. 🧐
