How would people feel about a new Magazine which is dedicated to archiving Reddit posts, comments and general history? (kbin.social)

With all the talk about posts being lost due to people deleting comments, posts, and subs going private or generally protesting, I wondered if people have an appetite for doing some work to move key bits of reddit history over to kbin/Lemmy for posterity?

I was a member of the Civcraft community for a long time. We had a pretty extensive wiki set up within Reddit, and when they switched over to new Reddit our Wiki got nuked. We lost sooo much history and archival work for Civ/Ancap Minecraft in general. Just wanted to bring this up so hopefully you can try to safeguard against a similar situation.

Would it be possible for you to replicate the initial steps of this post

to get a torrent of a reddit archive and pull the things you've lost?
