Are people backing up the fediverse?
-
The fediverse is approximately the part of the Internet that is least in need of anyone actively backing it up.
After all, all messages here are copied to many servers, each of them already serves as a backup. One more backup doesn't make much of a difference.

Nope. There's no other way to fetch those posts than to view them through some instance that already has them. Things will get saved on a Forumverse instance from the moment someone subscribes to the community.
Lemmy.world, sh.itjust.works and lemmy.zip are examples of instances that have existed for a long time and are well federated. Almost anything gets backed up by them, because almost any comm has users from those instances.
So it must've been Mbin then. All your examples list Lemmy-powered instances, and I did pull some posts through their comments.

You can manually pull individual posts on PieFed and Lemmy as well. But at least those two don't have a "pull the whole post history" feature per se.
Two PieFed instances do communicate the post history upon subscription. And, I think, comments as well? But PieFed cannot do that with Lemmy.

I wonder if backing up the fediverse is a good idea. I have a mixed opinion about it. I think not all data should be saved. I believe we can delete them after 3-5 years.
There is no point on keeping every stuff we created there. Maybe for history purpose on how we lived here ? On old computer ? On good photo and memory ? Nostalogia ?
Dunno...internet and memory from past is an interesting topic.
Edit: typo
look at the internet archive to see why backing up is important. history is very important

Yes but do all my interaction here need to be saved ? I will forgot overtime and never look back. We can create a story like a tatoo.
And that takes lot storage space, should my data remain that long ? If it was a newpaper, a personal blog, a diary, bookmark...i would save them.

> Are people backing up the fediverse?Threadiverse people: yes that's a good idea. Also this is already done because of how the threadiverse works.
Microblog people: are you insane that's a violation of my privacy. You're not allowed to scrape my public posts. *blocks*

Adding to possible fields backing up the internet helps, game development documentation, e.g. for RPG Maker 2000, can be a quest to find otherwise. Also finding forum posts if the forum is overly old or if it's for journalism when a relevant piece of information's been destroyed at the source.

Aside from the aspect of redundancy, the cross-instance backing up is text-only, so videos, images and documents/miscellaneous files to my knowledge still wouldn't be preserved.

Yes and I've previously said that that is suboptimal here: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/37873695/18832839

If you've been wanting to move your activity history from Strava to FitPub but dreaded dealing with the export files, I made a small browser tool that does the heavy lifting.

#WordPress のプラグイン #ActivityPub で抜粋される文字数が極端に少なくなってしまう問題、#Fediverse の投稿を #Bluesky に表示される #BridgyFed でも同様かもしれない。抜粋時に文字数のカウントで wordwrap を使っていることが原因だったのだが…。

Two very interesting things I noticed about this post by #Bluesky (which I discovered via @solimaniac_).
