This comment might answer your concern, but I’m not a scientist so I’ll let you have a look: https://lemmy.world/comment/10548651
Tell me a single place on the internet that would have less snarky or sarcastic answers.
I had a quick look, no post for 2 days, the two post of todays are reposts from someone who posted them to [email protected] too. The mod hasn’t been active for a month.
And having a community off LW for a change is nice, this is like hitting two birds with one stone.
these daily announcements threads on an instance that’s already defederating apparently
Where has LW announced that they would be defederating?
If you want to build up alternatives, post and comment so they’re more active.
Which is what they are trying to achieve by promoting those communities in this post?
I feel the centralization of communities on WORLD is a far greater and thus more urgent issue for me.
Is it? Is there any level of power tripping similar to lemmy.ml?
Also
I suggest to have one topic per comment so that is is easier to discuss.
Pretty hard to boot when they own the instance
If there’s a community that only exists there, be the change you want to see: create it somewhere else and give it time to grow. You’re not the only one making this complaint about .ml, and you probably wont’ be the last.
Maybe we should open a thread on [email protected] about this
Interesting, which instance are you on?
Well done!
I usually recommend it to new joiners so that they don’t have to worry about federation right away and can just use the local communities.
After that, I encourage them to move to smaller instances, but I guess they are just comfortable there
The last time I encountered a power trip mod, I created another community on the same topic, brought other people who were unsatisfied over, and the new community is much more active than the initial one.
It takes quite a while though.
