Who are we?
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.
We are one. We are legion. And we're trying really hard not to forget.

Feels like this would be the wrong community for that, IMO.
Doing a quick search at https://lemmyverse.net/communities I found !opendirectories@lemmy.world , seems pretty quiet right now but you could start posting there if you wanted to help get it active.
Thanks, posted some there.
I was talking about; https://lemmy.ml/c/opendirectories it shows page 404, and when I tried creating it it says already exists. So maybe it existed on lemmy.ml at one point and it was deleted or banned?
i hope it's allowed, or perhaps a community should be created? i do miss the OD sub from reddit.
