I love that folks use these archive.org links like this one here:

https://web.archive.org/web/20231125030342/https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/crime/article281901303.html

How are they finding these or making them? Let’s say I’m reading NYTimes or something, what do I do to link to the same article but archived?

Just open the main page of archive.org and paste the URL into the search field, and you'll see all the copies they have archived.
