@gsgmfg@fosscad.io did it, the madman. In conjunction with a kind user from the Index’s Lemmy instance, he was able to restore almost all of the data from /r/fosscad. There’s a bit of a loss in images, but the text – the oh-so-valuable advice and discourse – is all there.

And the best part: it’s federated between both of our instances. There are now not one but two copies of the data: one local to his instance and one local to mine.

        I thank you for the correction, clickbait is for youtube, we just strive for the truth here.

      TBH, this is better. We can now go back and link if we need to.
