I can search for communities in the little list box at the bottom. I have absolutely no idea how to search for posts or comments (other than using DuckDuckGo or whatever).
r/DataHoarder project to archive reddit before the API changes (link to request a copy of your personal data at the end)
If you have time, the ArchiveTeam Warrior runs easily in VirtualBox.
Also, you can request a copy of your personal data from reddit at (useful if you wish to delete your account):

That is awesome. Thank you for explaining the formatting!
Perfect! Thank you so much.
Dual boot Ubuntu/Win10 on one, and dual boot Mint/Win7 on another. If I can secure a stable internet connection I will switch the last machine to a server.
I'm a CS major, so I need all the experience I can get. I prefer Linux machines because I think the OS is superior in a number of ways.
Can you point me to the FOSS/Linux community? I'm actually looking for that too.
I'm also new here and I love it! I stopped really interacting with anyone or making content on reddit a few years ago. Federated instances are so much fun. I am inspired again.
Good question. I just found the built in search bar icon between the heart and bell. I wonder how posts and comments can be searched on different federated sites for a single user.
I've been using site:lemmy.ml "search term(s) here'" (remove quotes unless you want an exact match for the search terms) to find what I'm looking for on each federation instance. I feel like I'm missing something here.
FYI, r/LemmyMigration is not accessible from the web unless you are logged in. A pop-up directs you to log in or go to r/all.
That is a great way to look at it. I left FB at least 10 years ago. I ended up arguing with a family member and realized how pointlessly stupid the entire platform was for me. I didn't use social media other than reddit for nearly a decade.
It's just time to move on to the next thing. It's weird because that jump has to happen with other people but not too many.
I would like to see:
