Hi everyone,

I just joined and am now exploring this place. I noticed there already are similar communities on different instances. For example there is a [email protected] and a [email protected]. Is there a way to “join” or “sync” these different spaces? Or will they just be separate?

I think It would be nice to connect places like these. As far as I understand it if one instance goes down all their communities disappear. With “synced” communities across instances this could be avoided since they act like a backup for each other.

So far I like it here and am looking forward to how this all works out.

Thanks everyone for contributing and running this place.

    I was thinking about what if one instance shuts down for whatever reason. Then a lot could be lost. But in a similar way a subbreddit also had no backup if something would happen to them so they could already be lost. One can just hope that the instances will develop a solid funding/administration foundation to stand on so they will stay.
