Imgur purge is actively happening. Safe to say we will be in that era soon enough, give or take 2 years optimistically. Being pessimistic, 1 year. To bring even more depression, during this year, in realtime right now, content is being purged at a rate where you will be lucky if you manage to salvage all that you need to.
We are in the most turbulent era of internet that we might ever see, before the AI age dawns upon us. Grab a couple 4 TB Seagate HDDs and save anything you need to. Movies, documentaries, songs, obscure YouTube videos, photo galleries, game ROMs, webpages, documents... anything. Ham that internet connection with whatever freerange VPN you can.
Is there a good /r/DataHoarder equivalent on Lemmy somewhere?
Rely on r/datahoarder for now. Data hoarders and pirates are universally an uncompromised group of internet.
You should invite them to create a community here, or we can give them !datahoarder@lemmy.ml .
I am hurrying up as much as I can, and also being a Lemmy watchdog to see the instances popping up and user traffic. I will try getting them onboard.
Sweet, thx.
I was asked this. Please discuss it swiftly.
This was a message sent to me. The point they were trying make besides this is regarding archival of porn content being considered as NSFW. Also I am seeing massive complaint about Lemmy UI being very visually bloated compared to old.reddit.com, which is putting off many users, reminding them of the new.reddit.com travesty.

Can you clarify the pinned mod's question, and the questions related to porn hoarding in other comment? Also, visual UI element bloat is making many people unhappy.
Ask them to make an account here and ask directly, I don't like discussing by proxy.
Archivist is arguably the head of data hoarders that exist on internet today. He has messaged you above in the thread. My job is done.
Asked. Time to wait.
