    Before reddit removed them most of this compiled knowledge was in the subreddit wikis. I honestly believe a return to communities with wikis is the long term replacement.

      It would be interesting if Fediverse platforms made an external wiki for discoverability. A big shared community resource all in one place.

      Honestly, not a bad opinion, when the wikis were done well, they did have some extremely useful information. I wonder if we could do something like that in Lemmy…

        That was my first thought - if reddit doesn’t want that feature, we’ll take it!

      Yeah, the wikis came in clutch a lot of times for me. Really well done with how organized they were for the ones that had them.
