      Seeing enough

      • broken/removed/deleted Reddit/Tumblr/Twitter images/videos and then
      • Lemmy instances removing all their user-uploaded content last year because someone uploaded trigger-warning content and then
      • seeing my animated GIFs and high-resolution PNGs turn into pixelated, static, medium-size WEBPs after uploading them to Lemmy?

      It made me fucking crazy.

      Also, my name is lars and I’m a digital hoarder. I’m open to suggestions.

        Yeah I hate how Lemmy fucks up gifs, mine just converts them to jpgs lol.

        I like how it became a hoarders anonymous meeting at the end.

        I mean, I get what you’re saying, but the Internet Archive has limited resources as it is and doesn’t appreciate being used as a CDN. They’ve said as much themselves on various occasions
