I’m still trying to forgive them for cutting the cached page feature. On the long slide from “the best thing on the Internet” to the eventual destination of “fuck this, fuck this in particular” that will probably for me be the moment the sign flipped.


Wait what? It's still there for me on every result...


Yea. I wonder how it becomes disabled for a site. Manually? Looking around, I only see 4chan and Instagram not having any cached pages available.


It's a HTML meta tag which can be added to the <head>

<meta name="robots" content="noarchive">

EDIT: or it can be added as an X-Header, https://developers.google.com/search/docs/advanced/robots/ro...

EDIT2: I checked it for 4chan and Instagram, they use the HTML head meta tag.


It was probably removed for legal reasons.
