This is an opportunity for any users, server admins, or interested third parties to ask anything they’d like to @nutomic@lemmy.ml and I about Lemmy. This includes its development and future, as well as wider issues relevant to the social media landscape today.
Note: This will be the thread tmrw, so you can use this thread to ask and vote on questions beforehand.
For communities that have been federated, their historical data, posts, comments, etc should still be available on other instances. So in a sense they’re already archived.
Besides that, we have a backup / restore guide on the join-lemmy docs that show how to backup your DB, which every server should be doing.
