Leaving a digital footprint

[henikova]

I'm aware of the fact that I will never know what happens to my stuffs after I die. I don't worry much about my physical possessions. Maybe some of my stuffs will be used by others for a while, but eventually everything is heading the junkyard.
On the other hand I feel bad about some digital photos, documents that I'm holding dear now. I feel bad about them being deleted once for all.
I'm thinking about collecting the most important ones and upload them to archive.org Probably they will be around for many years or decades, maybe centuries. Who knows.
It gives me some peace of mind.

What kind of documents/photos are they, if I may ask?

That's a good idea, personally I'm afraid of what they might find after I'm gone.. Nothing illegal or serious, but for instance they'd find this forum, or my private chats with friends.. So I'm probably going to delete them. The only thing I'd be sad about if it was deleted, is my personal projects.

I'm curious as to what you could have which would be so sentimental that you would want to archive them, but that is none of my business. I think that is a very good idea for whatever it is.

Do you want it to be found in the future or not?
If not, you can create a new email to use Google (drive, photos), terabox, Dropbox and a lot more.
If you want it to be found probably stranger in far future, idk about archive.org.. but like new profile and create public Facebook group which you can attach documents, images or even use both and put the link in the Facebook or any online platform (wordpress, IG, blog)

Family photos, birth certificates, sequenced DNA data

Family photos, birth certificates, DNA data. I don't have children, so an unbroken chain of millions of generations ends with me being the last piece of chain. I feel like I have some obligation to leave something behind. I know it's sentimentality, but anyway.

I don't plan on ctb too soon. Maybe in a few years or a decade time.

Well, I get that, it makes more sense when you say it like that. I know you said it wouldn't be for a while, but when you do decide to commit suicide, good luck friend, I hope it works out.
