I wonder if there are any technical reasons with maybe ActivityPub that old posts might have to eventually be archived?

But I enjoy the idea of never archiving or at least keeping posts open for a long time like 10 years. I'm not sure why but there is something special aboaut old threads being revived or kept alive. I had this one comment on Reddit where I purchased a product and months and years later people would still respond asking if it was still working or if I'd still recommend it. This I is like "The internet never forgets" but in a good way.

can someone confirm if this is the real oldest lemmy post?

the oldest commit on github seems like its made about 4 years ago

edit: i think it might be impossible to confirm just because how lemmy works. the old federated instances that might have the older posts might have gone down.
