Is it possible to annotate links in Hypothes.is that are in the Internet Archive? My browser bookmarklet for it doesn’t work on such archived pages... in some cases this would be very useful to be able to do. For instance, Manfred Kuehns blog was discontinued in 2018, and more recently removed entirely from Blogspot where it was hosted. The archived versions are the only current source for those blogpostings. This means there is no ‘original’ page online anymore to gather the annotations around.This is a great point and use case - I often worry about content I care about and have spent time thinking about disappearing. I run my own archive using ArchiveBox. I see that the Hypothes.is bookmarklet seems to work for archive.org but only in chrome. Also, it doesn't play nice with archivebox yet. I might have to see if I can get it working at some point.
