IMO: Anytime you had a question that you wanted to learn about, whether it be shows or science, you could go into your preferred search engine and type reddit and [your question].
A good amount of discussions on the topic would show up and still do.
One day people will use Lemmy as the search engine to look for those discussions, hopefully!
That is a feature from Reddit that I miss as well. There were also 3rd party backups of Reddit, so even if communities, posts, or comments were deleted, you would be able to see what was removed.

The problem with Lemmy is that deleted posts will nuke all of the comments as well.
At least with Reddit, even if the post was deleted you could still get the answer by going through the comments.
I agree.
