Archives don't have to be decentralized.
It would be enough to have some centralized archives that fetch data from other relays and expressly aim at being archives that preserve posts for as long as possible (unlike most relays, which have no express aim or policy).
The amount of data would, likely, not even be that large (it's just text), especially if you filter out spam (which you may or may not want to do). The price of storage wouldn't be a significant issue.
