A screenshot, taken way before rexxit, of two comments on reddit, dated “1 year ago”.

The first comment is by a deleted user and the comment has been removed. The second comment is a reply to the deleted comment and it says: “That solved it. Thanks!”

Edit: added temporal context.

    Saving the important posts, posting the question and answer to lemmy and then deleting those posts imo would be the most optimal solution. At least the information is available somewhere and not punishing people looking for answers to their queries.

      Are Lemmy posts discoverable from normal search engines? If not, then it’s about as useful as the information posted in some obscure Discord chat

        If Lemmy becomes the go-to place where the knowledge resides, “regular” search engines will adapt to index communities across the instances.
