One of the reasons for pirating is that there are no ultimate and afordable source/s of all the content. Actually there should NOT be single centralized entity which would hold the informations/data, making single point of failure (SPoF).

By distributing the content, the risk of inaccessibility of it is decreased. That is why P2P networks like Gnutella, ED2K, Direct Connect, Soulseek and others are used.

I have tried 12 instances with most posts according to https://lemmyverse.net/?order=posts . I am able to find most post on 1-3 largest instances (those listed on the top of that page).

Is there any meta-search across many or all Lemmy instances? So i do not have to waste time opening many instances manually and doing search for each of the missing posts on each?

After updating the link and this link will become offline in the future, can i repeat the process or it wont work, because federated post can not be federated again (2nd level)?

Open big instances listed at https://lemmyverse.net/?order=posts and on its Search pages, search for a full post URL of the old/dead instance. I wish there is some meta search engine which would search many instances in one go.

 

I have many links from a permanently offline/down instance of Lemmy (closure announcement #1 , #2 ) like:

https://lemmings.world/post/10000001

https://lemmings.world/post/10000002

so how do i convert these links so it links to a federated (backup) content on other Lemmy instance/s?

Is my only chance to try https://web.archive.org/web/*/https://lemmings.world/post/10000001 to find out post content/name, so i can use search engine to search that post name if it indexes federated version of the original post?

If i know the post name, do i have better way to find the federated content address beside using internet search engine?

It seems like Lemmy sucks (still too centralized), possibly similarly to https://spasm.network/apps (i am yet to try its federated forums).

Can anyone summarize leading post, i do not understand what it means. Clickbait title but WTF is clear and short explanation/message in basic english to the users?
