Just wondering if it would be possible to enable the instance on LemmyFederate since then we could more easily distribute communities from here to elsewhere since as it is it's kind of hard to grow communities or even just have them be discoverable on other instances.

Uh for those who don't know LemmyFederate is a service that allows communities to be distributed to other instances via a bot that subscribes to them, then unsubscribes once a real user joins. It's helpful because communities don't become visible on remote servers until someone from that server searches and subscribes to it. Due to a limitation of how the Activitypub system works.

This issue is mainly just about votes, since these take up lots of storage space. The total amount of upvotes/downvotes would still be saved, but the individual votes of each user would get purged from the DB. Even though it mentions disabling comments once a post gets archived, I think this will be a separate option, that can be disabled by instance admins. If you still oppose this, you should comment on the GitHub issue, that's where the devs are, not here.
