Hey, Hakim’s channel used to have way more videos and it seems like a lot of his old back log was deleted. I honestly really loved them, especially his DPRK video, does anyone know if there’s archives available or what happened???

      Thanks comrade! Did you manage to save the sources he posted for each video? Or should I check normal archive.org for them?

        For each video there are three files:

        1. .description - the video’s description in plaintext

        2. .info.json - a variety of information about the video, including the top 50 comments

        3. .mkv - the video itself

        So if Hakim pinned all the comments with sources they should still all be there.

        This is the pinned comment inside 20211014 - UBI is kinda stupid, really [EKFE6rVHyJQ].info.json

    Someone on Lemmygrad had an archive of them, we’ll see if he shows up.

    There was some YouTube issue that messed up his catalog and he set them to private. He said that he has to submit a ticket for each video individually to fix whatever the issue was so they’re basically gone.

    Source: his patreon discord, this is asked almost daily.

    Hope you can find an archive!
