I would like to prove that a certain transaction was in the mempool on a certain date before it got replaced via RBF with another transaction. Is there any service that provides this data?

I would like to prove that a certain transaction was in the mempool on a certain date before it got replaced via RBF with another transaction.
Consider Tx de8ba282831c6d645aa777a35a5b9f2107cbd96913a9cd4c5880420db092e399 as an example.
gettransactionin Bitcoin Core returns:
"time": 1615601043,
"timereceived": 1615601043,
"replaced_by_txid": "f77e6928c1c12bc91858c95b32dab1e493b24cdf3e19c02372aa11e6dc5ec3c9",
Time of this tx: Saturday, March 13, 2021 2:04:03 AM
Got replaced by another tx on: Saturday, March 13, 2021 2:04:11 AM
I am not sure but maybe this information is only available for transactions that belong to your wallet because no other RPC returns replaced_by_txid.
Is there any service that provides this data?
Couldn't find such information in any of the famous bitcoin explorers. Best I could find was one explorer that shows invalid type for tx which got replaced:

I think it doesn't correctly answer the question as the OP asks about "a transaction from my mempool" and
gettransactionis only about transactions from our wallet. Jul 23, 2021 at 12:15 -
1.
gettransactionis only for wallet transactions which is the only RPC that returnsreplaced_by_txidso it's not possible to check if Tx2 transaction was replacement for Tx1 2. OP is looking for a certain transaction that "was in the mempool" but "got replaced". Got replaced = Got included in block or again replaced until confirmed.– user103136Jul 23, 2021 at 12:46
debug=mempoolyou can grep yourdebug.logforreplacing tx <original txid>.
