Subject: Re: [PolySix] Yahoo Groups shutting down

Already on it 🤓, I’m working with this script now: https://github.com/IgnoredAmbience/yahoo-group-archiver

It’s not working as is, but I’ve got it now so far that it can download messages, files, photos and databases. It crashes on certain message attachments though, so still working on that. At least this will give me a complete archive just in case.

I believe there are some 3rd party options that will download everything if that's what you want to do.  A quick google search found a couple options.



Yes, but that is a manual thing. One file or photo at a time. You can only get a complete archive for your own yahoo account. Not for a group.

I think you should be able to download all files from the group, perhaps they could be accessible on some free cloud service:
