unfortunately I realized too late that I have had hundreds of saved links to posts and comments from there, so I did not have enough time to save them, but anyways it is interesting that maybe a third of the post links I could try were dead. I think linkrot is happening much faster here than on reddit, even if just counting deleted posts.

Deleting your account deletes your content, unlike deleting your Reddit account. Hence the linkrot.

I learnt pretty early on that saving posts using the save button was not a good way to save the information ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

That's weird. I moved over from lemm.ee and transferred data. The saved posts transferred too.

No that's expected, as part of your profile info. But if the original authors delete the comments, then they will also be deleted in your saved items.
