The migration of large communities from Reddit to Lemmy is like a world-renowned band performing an acoustic set in a library for 50 people. (lemmy.world)

The fanbase is still large, but the Lemmy community hasn't quite caught up yet, and now there is a transitional period where the audience is smaller.

To be safe I should download backups once a month or so.

Maybe look into borg and https://www.borgbase.com/ - they give 10gb free. I sat it up for some important data I would want to keep if utter disaster struck yesterday, and was pretty straight forward.

You could also set up a more ghetto time machine like rsync with https://github.com/laurent22/rsync-time-backup if you have a machine on your network with ssh access from outside.
