Hi everyone. Obligatory I'm enjoying my time here.

Looking at some other discussions about Reddit and what happens to the trove of knowledge when/if it all disappears.

My main question is, if, for example, beehaw decided it wasn't worth it to keep going and shut their server down, is that the end of just their "subs" or do all of their users and their comments disappear across the whole fediverse?

Thank you yes. That was sort of my question. I didn't know if any data is pushed to any other instances as a redundancy or a backup. I only used beehaw as an example since its fresh in everyone's mind.
