I messaged them but I haven't heard anything back as yet. I can understand the mods needed a break though, so i live in hope they'll re-open for a while so we can access it. I have to take some responsibility for it though, I could have very easily been keeping my own copy.

there's always the feeling that what's on the internet lasts forever but these couple of years especially this event really shows me how things we put online can be all gone in a matter of hours. Can't even find who we have been talking to for years unless we've private messaged each other.

I live in hope that the olds mods are lurking here. I'm pretty sad about it honestly but I have to accept that yeah, nothing is guaranteed. More forewarning would have been easy and I was online all day. I'd taken the time to message some users but didn't think for a second i might lose my writing

yeah, not even reveddit shows the comments.

I've actually just read through my still living comments from another sub and I can probably piece the trans stuff together from that, which is a relief. The daily jobs of moving house would have been nice but yeah, aaaaah. All is not lost.

Thanks mate! I also lost every breakfast you made me. They'd have been a nice little inclusion to relfect the context of being able to write publicly in a safe space which was so casual and full of people from all from all walks of life, not being dicks to each other,

Awesome! and I'll keep jounaling here for now. might make copies from now on though. Heartwarming to know we've still got that safe space
