A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Would it be possible to somehow mirror the archive as a read only lemmy instance? Like... Funny@oldreddit so that it would be still searchable from lemmy?
I can look into doing this because it sounds like a genius idea. I'll have to work with a friend and see what we can pull together
Let me know how can I help
I'm sure it's possible. Someone would either need to transpile the current data format to match Lemmys', or just build a new front-end for it. Also, it might be considerably difficult to host something like this because there's just so much data. The Pushshift archive alone is 2TB, which is primarily just text.
