Starting 26th August 2024, we’ll begin deleting messages and files more than one year old from free workspaces on a rolling basis.
Also note that you already can’t see messages older than 90 days on a free workspace, but they’re there if you upgrade. This change means if you do upgrade, data older than 1 year will be gone.

I think the approach will be to upgrade, export the data and then cancel subscription.
I don't mean cancel as to leave slack but to be able to revert to the new free usage policy while keeping previous data.
According to their FAQ, you can export on a free plan
There are also a variety of solutions for converting the exports in different ways. Here's mine: https://github.com/akkartik/slack-archive
