IIRC Steam lets people who purchased (or rather add to their library) a game access to it indefinitely. A famous example was second party side-scrolling half-life game named Codename Gordon. It's delisted but still available with the right steam command. I personally also have a source mod on steam on my account where it had been delisted due to potential lawsuit but I can still play it if I wanted.

Technically, yeah. It went downhill when the Ottoman joined WW1 and lost.

Ah, Japan, the country that lives in the future, if the future is the year 2000.

Quick, list all the alternatives so that we're not boned once the other one gets the chop. Would be better if it's in the wiki linked in the megathread.

tbf all the real ones start with A:

  • Asia
  • Africa
  • Antarctica
  • Australia
  • America (North)
  • America (South)

The only fake one is Europe, being part of Asia geographically.

We don't know how the fediverse would play out in the long term but I expect a few things:

  • Lemmy devs will implement locking old posts in the future
  • instance owners will decide on their post locking policies
  • Many instances will not survive for as long as Reddit survived till today
  • Third party archivers (perhaps archive.org among others) will need to step in and archive posts. Ofc archived posts is not interactible.
