Hi everyone. Obligatory I'm enjoying my time here.

Looking at some other discussions about Reddit and what happens to the trove of knowledge when/if it all disappears.

My main question is, if, for example, beehaw decided it wasn't worth it to keep going and shut their server down, is that the end of just their "subs" or do all of their users and their comments disappear across the whole fediverse?

Well the host of that instance would still have the data but most of the time I'm sure they'd just delete it to save space so posts and accounts would be gone forever
