An incomplete archive of r/homelab

3 years ago by Thomas to c/homelab

Here is my attempt to archive r/homelab before it went dark. Google says there about 92,400 results for site:reddit.com/r/homelab, I have 2098, that's only about 2% of it. Maybe there is something of use to you in that 2%.

Please don't webscrape, if you want all the data you can get the raw BDFR archive at https://archive.douwes.co.uk/reddit/homelab.tar or the live web version at https://archive.douwes.co.uk/...

I still don't understand if this one is the "official" replacement of r/homelab 🤔 can someone give me some informations about that?

it's not official, also the mod here seems to be inactive. but it's the biggest homelab lemmy I could find on https://browse.feddit.de/
I don't know where all the people from r/homelab have gone. some other subreddit that have closed have flooded into lemmy but r/homelab doesn't seem to have done that.

Yep I saw a post saying that they are still deciding the platform to use (Lemmy, forum, etc...)

A lot are on discord, but the mods are looking at an official Lemmy alternative. At the moment lemmy.ml is having significant issues so I'm not sure how that's impacting federation, but hopefully they improve their servers soon..

Personally I don't think Lemmy is really a great alternative in its current state especially with servers being able to defederate other servers, meaning that users registered on Beehaw for example can't now view communities hosted on lemmy.world which seems to entirely defeat the purpose to me..
