YES!!
And reddit should be converted to troddit
And FT articles / all the paywalled stuff should be auto converted to archives
This is more than just readability. It's also about privacy.
At the very least, the OP could get an alert when using such links about such facilities being available (should be relatively easy to scan for twitter / reddit etc links and make a corresponding frontend alert prior to submit)
Achive.ph doesn't have an API or any way to auto convert, as far as I can tell. Archive.org / Wayback has an API, but nothing I could see (from a quick scan) related to using the archive to request a snapshot be taken.
