Any time they ask for donations, I donate to archive.org instead.

A very good choice, because the Internet Archive is financially far less secure than the Wikimedia Foundation and provides a vital service, by archiving Wikipedia sources before they go offline. This makes sure you can still see in five years' time what someone has cited in an article.

They also pay their executives far less.

Archive.sth isn't an organization but a private site thus their finances aren't fully known. Based on that, think it like a GitHub project. If you like its work and can, donate.
