So, replicating communities is bad unless it is you replicating them?
Having separate communities with very low activity prevents their growth. Consolidation can be discussed if the mods are okay with it. On the other hand, if there are issues with the instance where the communities are located, then giving a try at another version of the community might help.
I really hope that both !asklemmy@lemmy.world and !asklemmy@lemmy.ml, being among the most active communities of the instance, won’t mind me starting another one.
For the delay between LW and aussie.zone: https://aussie.zone/post/17712350
They currently have more than one-day of delay:
For .ml: https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
I really hope that both (…) won’t mind me starting another one.
So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?
Perhaps it is the issue of control? Locking inconvenient subjects, like you just have done in this “your new community”?
Locking inconvenient subjects
And unlocked
This isn’t really the same thing.
I’m the only mod and I have to go, based on the history, I wanted to avoid coming back to a thread full of drama like the ones I linked in that post.
I’m going to find mods in the coming days. I’ll also reopen that thread when I’m back.
So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?
Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform? On top of that, I’m not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk
- !lego@lemm.ee
- !map_enthusiasts@sopuli.xyz
- !photography@discuss.online
- !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com
- !linux@programming.dev
And a lot of other communities where I regularly post
I’m the only mod
Sadly.

By “drama” you mean subject inconvenient to yourself?
Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?
Your point is?
I’m not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk
Are you a mod to “ask Lemmy”? No? This is why you created alternative community to it?

Do you see me creating communities alternative to those?
It’s kind of ironic, because I can just use all the arguments people threw at me recently about !buyeuropean@feddit.uk and !buyfromeu@feddit.org
- it’s fine to have several communities on the same topic
- if you don’t like it, you can just ignore it
- the mod team decided to keep it open, so it’s their right
One rule for you and different for the other people, eh?
Coming back to
Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?
Also, feel free to comment under each of my posts to promote !asklemmy@lemmy.world or !asklemmy@lemmy.ml , I wouldn’t mind.
And definitely not ban people over it.
@asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev , would you like to help me mod? You seem to be doing a good job on the LW version. I know you don’t have a lemm.ee account, but it seems like with 0.19.9 most of the mod actions should work, we can at least give it a try
Sure. Since Lemmy version 1.0.0 seems to be coming pretty soon (which should fix the reports federation issue), I’m assuming I won’t need to create a new account on lemm.ee. The community is pretty small right now anyway, so I’m not expecting any reports at the moment.
Thank you for accepting, you are now a mod!
I’ve just had two reports yesterday, but hopefully the number should indeed stay low
What’s wrong with Aussie.zone
Here you go: https://aussie.zone/post/18420943
I’m not really understanding, is it you want to defederate from Aussie.zone because we’re slow to update?
Pretty much the opposite, the sync between lemm.ee and aussie.zone goes much faster than between lemmy.world and aussie.zone so having the !ask@lemm.ee allows you guys to interact without having to wait for hours and hours for comments to sync between instances.
Ah that’s awesome, I’m all on board
99.99% of the time you see the phrase “power tripping admins” it means “Someone asked me to follow the rules”.
So are you okay with this? https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
No, but they’re not out there making the daily argument for the most active communities of the same name being the only communities of the same name.
I get that nuance is a thing, but maybe you are not the one to be the standard barer for this one, given how it conflicts with your very public lobbying for consolidation? I say this with kindness and respect, but it does make you come across as more controlling and manipulatuve than well intentioned.

Interesting how you think that’s what my instance is, when I have said multiple times that !politics@hexbear.net and !politics@lemmy.world should stay parallel communities.

Nuance, indeed
I’ll promote it more widely later, in the meantime, feel free to chime in

Don’t bother folks unless the subject you are going to raise is convinient for him. Otherwise it will be locked 😁
I just unlocked your thread, but sure
What is the rational behind creating another version of a healthy and popular community?
Was there a moderation issue? Is this just to diversify the instances? Isn’t this antithetical to your previously demonstrated campaigns to consolidate conversations on a topic to a single community?
Technical issue on LW preventing aussie.zone from participating: https://aussie.zone/post/18420943
Isn’t this antithetical to your previously demonstrated campaigns to consolidate conversations on a topic to a single community?
I always said that parallel communities were fine as long as there was a reason to have a separation, be it technical, about moderation, or culture.
Also, Ask communities are quite popular, this is not going to be the same news articles shared across three communities and splintering the discussion.
Finally, if someone wants to comment under each of the posts on !ask@lemm.ee about !asklemmy@lemmy.world and !asklemmy@lemmy.ml, feel free.
sounds good
Thanks, see you around!
