I really used to enjoy /r/datahoarders. Except for how right wing it was. Too much focused around the interests of white, male, anglo, north american, cis, het, rich, etc etc. Libertarian. Occasionally in the best way, more commonly in the worst ways.

Is there any such communities which are more expansive than archiving every Nirvana bootleg or getting the most hi quality version of The Simpsons? Or any interest in such a thing?

Yep, I mostly use it for books, gaymes, old websites, old mods, various useful utilities, OSes, offline AI horseshit, foreign pita to get films, and 360p quality shows since I can't afford big data on my budget.

I focus a lot on offline, easy to setup since most of my life I've dealt with shitass internet, questionable power, and poverty and none of those are going to improve in my lifetime I assure you. My data hoarding's saved my hide, neighbors', or relatives' quite often, as it should be.
