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.

I think this is the only thing Nostr fixes. It has a lot of other issues, I feel which makes it difficult to scale. Like you can't block anyone, just mute. It's only the text that is distributed, media is still centralized, etc.. You cant stop someone from following you. Metadata about you gets leaked to the network like who you are muting. It doesn't work well if you use two different clients, like desktop and android.
