Rules
Still a bit early to announce it on !communitypromo@lemmy.ca , but I thought it was worth sharing here.
Note that I had to use my alts to federate it to most instances, as Lemmy-federate doesn't support Piefed (or at least, Piefed.social isn't enrolled)
Thank you @Snoopy@piefed.social !
Nice!
great, now I'm subscribed to 4 communities called "fediverse" :D (the one you linked to and the ones on lemmy.ml, lemmy.world and lemmy.zip)
lemmy.zip
I was hoping to get that one to become the LW alternative, but after the mod asked me to become a mod and I declined, but suggested to create a meta post to call for more mods, they told me they prefer to not have meta posts on that community.
Well, fine, you make the rules, I guess I'll post somewhere else.
Note that this was also why !globalnews@lemmy.zip and !world@quokk.au never consolidated, the mods of both communities just wanted to keep theirs
@PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat , IIRC at some point you volunteered to join the mod team of !globalnews@lemmy.zip , did that ever went anywhere?
Did I? I don't even remember this... if I did volunteer I don't think it ever went anywhere no.
they told me they prefer to not have meta posts on that community
I hope you dragged them into one of your beloved drama communities for that. The nerve of some people to have a disagreement with you.
You believe that communities shouldn't have meta posts calling for more mods when there's only one and that person is willing to offer someone else a mod position?
@FrostyTrichs@crazypeople.online I don't have an alt on your instance so feel free to subscribe if you like the idea
Same for @Coelacanth@feddit.nu and @CheeseToastie@lazysoci.al
subscribe if you like the idea
Thanks for the tag, I've added it to our feed.
I don't have an alt on your instance
Seems easy enough to remedy 😎
Nice!
I might at some point ha ha 😄
The little community that @deadsuperhero@lemmy.ml set up, keeps growing
!fediverse@lemmy.ml is pretty much completely shadowed by !fediverse@lemmy.world today
All this shuffling around for circumstantial reasons gets tiring and confusing.
Instead of spending all this time and energy trying to coordinate large-scale movements it would be a lot easier to just create a separate instance to be the home of the communities and have a neutral ground.
Feel free to stay on LW if you prefer
I prefer to have a community where aussie.zone doesn't have a 3 days delay

Who manages that instance? How do you prevent power tripping?

Yeah, a community on a topic-specific instances would never cause that, because it would only be a small number of activities.
Who manages that instance?
You. You can go to elest.io and create your own instance.
If you worry about costs, I'll be sure to contribute with a few cents per month. ;)

Lemm.ee has 7k monthly active users and several very active communities, without delays. The only instance having delays is LW.

Why would I?

You have a diverse set of mods with good track record. There's only one at the moment, but more will come once the community gets more active.
