It would be a shame to lose the wealth of knowledge with easy-ish search that subreddits like datahoarder provide if the subreddit is taken down or stays locked forever. Sure it is currently accessible, but will it stay that way?
I know it is being archived, but the accessibility part is the problem.
While it’s easy enough to get the sub contents in json, I don’t believe there is a post API for lemmy yet, so no way to easily push it back up.
But it is still possible. The question now is should it be done?
