automatically backup ao3 works so you never lose what you're reading again
AO3 Saver - Backup Your AO3 Works Automatically
"AO3 Saver" is a Chrome extension that automatically backs up the works you read on Archive of Our Own (AO3), preventing loss of access to stories. When you start reading a work, it backs it up on its servers. If a story goes down, you can easily retrieve it through a button on the 404 page. The extension also includes a menu to help you search for previously visited or deleted works. Your viewing history is stored only on your device, ensuring privacy, and the developer is committed to ongoing support for this tool.

It works great, i just wish there was a way to delete fics if you accidentally saved one you don't want to save or you reread and accidentally save a fic multiple times, unless there is a way and i'm just too stupid to find it lol

hi! ive been using this extension for well over a year and a half now, and it has been working great. I'm not sure if it has something to do with my computer, but today I checked the extension and saw that ALL of the backed up fics that I had saved were gone. Just a big blank space, all missing. I tested out just now and new works are saving just fine, but everything from the past year is gone :( I have been using the same computer since then. Is there someway to recover them? And if not, is there a way to prevent the extension from resetting in the future?? Thanks!

I love it, especially when it's able to archive works that are so big that using AO3's regular download options don't seem to work (as in, overwhelming to the system)! <3 Though I would also love it if the archiving wasn't solely done in HTML format, I hope there's a way to include PDF too.
