Probably illegal, but in all of this talk of “reddit has historic posts that are important”, could we export all of the posts from r/FMHY and import them here?

Technically, we could scrape them at least. Legally dubious. But perhaps if there attribution to reddit for those imported posts it could be fine?

    Reddit has a functioning API for now. You could just use this.

    Somebody is going to make a read-only Reddit clone instance at some point, hopefully in a way that’s hard to sue. If somebody wants to pay for it I would set it up.
