It’s funny, a few groups I belong to solely use FB. One group is for the preservation of weatern history and a friend digitizes and uploads thousands of pictures (if not 10s of rhoughsands) yearly. The only actual digital copies are on FB. It bugs me that he won’t archive elsewhere. The reason is fb is a commons and an additional backup would be a magnitude more work. I’ve offered to buy hard drives.

You can download the pictures and archive them yourself.

Why not upload to archive.org?

There are thousands of pictures across hundreds of albums. So it’ll need to be scraped. Something might exist, no time to write such.

But Facebook is almost, but not quite entirely unlike commons...
