one of the Good subs was called 100YearsAgo, people post HQ scans of old newspapers and photos from today in 1923. it's very fascinating seeing how language changed / didn't change, the attitudes around politics, women, prohibition, the minimum wage, etc

That's a good idea for a lemmy community. Maybe I'll set one up for that.

Ok actually, I just wrote a bot that reposts pictures from the subreddit to a Lemmy community, so you can still have them in your feed :-D
