That is why rules are set to keep content with true value. Else it's content archeology and as IRL you won't find everything untouched as it was.

Exactly, all content does not need to be saved. In terms of server's cost and earth's cost. Sustainability is not an option.

So do I. And since there were no rule I didnt thumbs up the ancient but helpful content to keep it alive. Purging is not about censorship but to keep fragile communities alive by keeping above all their true value.

I tought about it too as web is based on quantity rather than quality. "Will servers begin to periodically purge old content?" In my opinion, it's the best option. Instances can set up there own rules, ie oldest postes && least liked First, then least commented, then bookmarked etc... I m sure I won't miss this post in one month or even one day.
