A lot communities have "Posts older than 365 days will be removed." in their description, but what does this mean exactly? It never says.

  • The database of posts only goes as far as 1 year, everything older gets wiped? I hope and assume that's not it.
  • Posts with links to articles older than a year get removed?
  • If a thread is over a year old, no new comments will be added?

Without a specific example, everyone else is left guessing, same as you, but I'd read that as the first option. If it's a lot of communities, I'd guess it might be the policy of the server they are hosted on.
