I’m really not a fan of the lw admins just blocking communities. It’s not the first time either. It’s even worse than defederating, because there’s no record of it.
I signed up to lw on its almost first day, but with some of these policies, and constant downtimes, looks like I’ll be moving. It’s a bummer I’ve created all the communities here before lw became so big.
Yes I know, I just wish they were more diversified. When I was starting, I wasn’t expecting Lemmy to take off like this, so I didn’t care much at the time. Now it sucks especially due to the server downtimes.
Lemmy is still young. If you move your community now, pin an announcement on top with a link to the new one, and lock the old one, you’ll probably have almost everyone following you. I did it for one of my communities, the subscribers number of the new one is almost identical to the old one.
It might be better to do it now than in a few weeks/months when your communities are much larger.

Just FYI but you can mod users on other instances to your communities on lemmy.world.

I wasn’t even thinking about that, but maybe it’s not a bad idea to consider.
This is bogus. I’ll be creating an account elsewhere, and letting this one go stale. Lemmy.world is down constantly anyway.
