The historical backlog isn’t going anywhere. It will still be viewable on other instances.
For example here’s an old thread from a community on vlemmy.net, an instance that disappeared more than a year ago.

Yes, but people can no longer engage with that content. It creates the appearance of relatively dead communities.

Yeah and that kinda looks bad at first glance. Just clicking on what seems like the biggest community (most subscribers) and seeing that it’s actually dead (instance went down or the community was migrated elsewhere).
