I am trying to archive lefty reddit in the likely off chance that these subs get nuked. Any more subs to add to the list? Any advice on going about archiving it? What should I do with in bedded links?

Grabbing posts and comments from the Reddit API would be easy. Would the markdown need the be transformed?
I think its exactly the same, just user/subreddit links wouldnt work.
How do you deal with the name of the poster, since they don’t exist in the Lemmy DB?
Either create an account with that name (only really possible if its a separate instance imo), or you post it all from a user like
communism_backup.The
communism_backupoption seems more reasonable to me. Every post could have the original username from Reddit written at the end of its body and the same logic applies to the comments.It also considers people who may want to join Lemmy with their original account usernames.
Hahaha
