I’m curious, since one of the first casualties of the Great Reddit API Debacle was Pushshift, whether there’s already any sort of equivalent for Lemmy.

If nothing else, I could imagine a pushshift-like “instance” whose actual purpose is just archiving everything from the instances it’s federated with.

    There isn’t but hopefully the lemmy API will be functional enough on its own that we don’t need something like pushshift.
