I want to add a community that is essentially the Lemmy version of an existing subreddit (r/mcmansionhell). Is this allowed?

    Do you mean they have a backup of comment and post history from /r/datahoarder or a backup of literally all reddit?

      Literally all of reddit. The entire platform.

        Wow. That’s really impressive. I really enjoyed that sub.

        Also surprising it’s only 2TB.

          It’s JSON so it’s only text, and it’s compressed, but that’s still 1 trillion characters assuming it’s UTF-16. I’ve not actually taken a look myself at the data though, I just contributed to let my PC contribute to the project.
