ERR: Request Failed

[SatinFoil]

Describe the bug
Whenever this addon tries to talk to Wayback Machine it always says "ERR: Request Failed". I have not seen it work 1 time. This makes the addon practically unusable for it's intended purpose.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Activate the addon (click on it)
2. Click on the button that shows the snapshots
3. Wait for it to load
4. See the "ERR: Request Failed" error

Expected behavior
It showing the correct data taken from the Wayback Machine, similar to what was demonstrated on the website.

Screenshots

@SatinFoil Thanks for taking the time to report this issue! however, this extension hasn't been functional for a couple of years now. The wayback api has been updated. Add to that, one of the members of the wayback machine team expressed their disapproval of this extension being out there when it was released. It's very unlikely that I will keep this extension up and chase the phantom of a changing api, as I don't use it myself now. The only reasonable actions are me archiving this repo and removing the addons from the stores. If you have any other suggestions, please do share.

Ah, I see! Yes, I think the best option if you aren’t going to maintain this extension anymore would be to delist it from the stores (to avoid any confusion from people). Out of curiosity, why did the wayback machine team not like this extension? You don’t have to answer if you don’t want (it isn’t a very important question), but if you don’t mind, I am curious!
