Doesn't work for me – probably one of those things that Google rolls out over the course of months without any way of telling whether you're already in the feature flag or not.
In the meantime, I'll keep using this handy bookmarklet: https://gist.github.com/n-st/0dd03b2323e7f9acd98e (which obviously only works for pages that are still available; for others, it requires copy-paste-ing the URL).
Also, Google/IA and me seem to have very different definitions of "easy":
> [...] conduct a search on Google as usual. Next to each search result, you’ll find three dots—clicking on these will bring up the “About this Result” panel. Within this panel, select “More About This Page” to reveal a link to the Wayback Machine page for that website.
The only thing that's missing is the "Beware of the Leopard" sign.
That said, it's one full page scroll down, and that after two clicks at not-too-obvious menus. Not exactly in your face in terms of discoverability.
Hopefully this is just a first step – keeping archived sites indexed and/or automatically forwarding people to IA links once the original goes down would be amazing!
Within reason, of course; there's possibly a point where it would be a bit "too discoverable" and make people exclude their site from archiving as a general precaution. (I could see people being generally fine with being archived, but not with being google-able forever.)
