I’m alone at:

There’s some activity over at !cfb@fanaticus.social. During college football season it should be busy enough there.

If you combine all of the various dad-based groups (there’s several), the activity is somewhat there as well.

Would you be interested in coming over to !jets@nfl.community? Now with football season starting the instance is going to be one of my main focal points to work on the new Fediverser features.

I made a meta post at !jets@fanaticus.social to direct people over to nfl.community.

Sure, we can give that a try!

Do you think there should be some consolidation on that side?

[–] orangeNgreen@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. I think most of them have inactive mods, which makes it tough. But having 5+ dad groups probably isn’t conducive to engagement at this stage.

Would you like to create a dedicated thread here, in !fedigrow@lemm.ee ? Might be easier to have all the context (all the communities, how long have their mods been inactive, etc) in one thread, that could then be shared to the different existing communities to explain the rationale behind it.

[–] orangeNgreen@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

I can do that. Should be able to put that together later today.

Edit: done.
