Lemmyverse historical data? (data.lemmyverse.net)

I am interested in checking out the historical growth of a particular community. Lemmy Explorer crawls for data about the Lemmyverse every 24 hours or something, and that data is made available on their website. But I can only find where to download the latest data. Is there somewhere that I can find historical data? Does Lemmy Explorer archive these anywhere, or does it just overwrite the previous data each time it crawls?

Oh, right. The chat on GitHub is over my head, but I would have thought that solving the problem of instances sending every activity 2 or 3 times would help with that, since even rejecting something as a duplicate must eat up some time.

Yes but now it must wait for acknowledgement of a request (activity), before sending the next one. If one request takes 333ms means you can do max 3 requests per second. Now big instances like lemmy.world have activity above that so instances too far will perpetual lag behind
