How well-archived is Reddit? - eviltoast

Whenever a forum dies, a lot of answered questions are lost that would have been useful to people googling it in the future.

Reddit is like the mother of all forums, and it also has had a lot of internet history being made on it.

I really think we need a Reddit archive that is availabel for random people from Google. The best case scenario is that Reddit just limps on for years, therefore doing this conservation work better than anyone else could.

    What do people think about scraping Reddit for some specific content and rehosting it over here on Lemmy? For example the stories from r/BestofRedditorUpdates. It would make Lemmy feel more like home and add much needed content.
