What in your hoard do you treasure the most? I imagine to a lot of us it is photos and videos of our families, which I’d love to hear about, but also interested in rare bits of media or information that makes your collection unique.

Bro that’s actually wierd
Heh incel of lemmy eh ?? I guess every platform must have atleast one.
Lost music. It was an underground artist who quit in the mid 2010s before archive culture was really a thing. I’ve had people dm me looking for it before. I keep it offline only out of respect for the author who wants to stay gone because the reason he quit a decade ago was harassment.
at the same level of importance, every time I’ve gotten a new computer or operating system since 2013 or so, I’ve backed up every single user folded (pictures, videos, documents, etc) onto an external hard drive. I have a lot of good memories there that I really do not want to lose.
Does that artist know that you held onto all of that stuff? Probably means a lot to them
Early computer aided art and programs I’ve written, dating back decades.
In the mid 1990s I used ImpulseTracker to create music. The music sucks. But losing the original source .IT files would be heartbreaking.
Likewise, my first programs, written as a child in MS DOS batch files circa 1991 – basic menu driven interfaces that facilitated launching my installed sharware… I don’t have the games the program points to anymore, but that isn’t the point ;)
I wonder how my old 5.25" floppies are doing, my project to back them up goes for 20 years now and I backed up none because I’m too lazy
I also can’t prevent myself from being lazy. I haven’t written anything in my diary for 1 year. I read it yesterday and It’s a treasure. I regret I haven’t wrote anything in it for 1 year :(
