  • Is Lemmy.ml missing from the fediverse explorer?

    Jump

  • Thanks, I just noticed lemm.ee, lemmy.zip, lemmy.ca etc. missing too, so definitely a 19.4 issue.

    Also: What does any of this have to do with the moderation of lemmy.ml? I also don’t like their moderation but does that mean the instance and their communities shouldn’t be visible on the Lemmy Explorer? Who should decide which instance should or should not be included on the list? If you want to avoid the instance like I do you can just use the filter to remove lemmy.ml communities on the community browser of the Lemmy Explorer.

    Strong agree.

  • which at least one person said was removed deliberately so as not to overload them - so presumably by their own consent and likely even request

    Presumably being the key word here. It's not clear based on this comment. It might have been a Lemmyverse decision to remove all of the .ml communities because they disagreed with the instance admins political stances.

  • The communities above are not managed by a project organisation (the only one I know if !librewolf@lemmy.ml), it's just that until last week, lemmy.ml was considered the go-to instance for FOSS and Linux.

    Network effect is here, I know it first hand as I've been busy posting to !linux@programming.dev to try to offer people an alternative to the lemmy.ml community.

    But I'm not planning to do that with the communities above, and same for the other FOSS communities, because I have other stuff to do

    The vast majority of people going to those communities just want a place with enough people to answer their questions on the topic. They are not going to organize a migration, most of them are probably not even aware of the issues with lemmy.ml administration (seems like the post got removed from lemmy.ml: https://lemmy.ml/comment/11606059)

    I see where you come from, and I get it to an extend, but the vast majority of people are probably going to keep going to those communities without any change.

    If someone wants to organize a migration of those above communities (the thread I linked above can be a starting point), feel free, but I wouldn't count on it. And without an active migration, those communities will stay the reference for those topics.

    On an interesting note, !collapse@lemmy.ml move to !collapse@lemm.ee recently.

  • They can, but hiding those useful communities from people who are probably just trying to troubleshoot their systems doesn't seem helpful

  • Explain the difference between the thing I linked, which I think I was told is the be all end all of Lemmy community searching, and this Fediverse Explorer?

    They have a different way to present things. I prefer Fediverse Explorer (more information with the table format), but to each their own.

  • New idea. Is this possible? Sub groups!

  • TIL, thanks!

  • Oh, interesting. I guess now it should probably be added back

  • I am curious: how did you even know to try that - is it written in the docs somewhere, or you just tried it and it worked?

    Someone else told me this. Seems like it's kind of a secret Lemmy technique that is passed from person to person ha ha

  • Small shout-out to !yurop@lemm.ee where we have this kind of light-hearted questions and content

  • Following the other post, which lemmy.ml communities don't have alternatives on other instances?

    Jump

  • They are always on r/RedditAlternatives steering people towards the Fediverse too, along with a few others. Unfortunately most people there are resistant, and the heavily leftist-leaning nature of the content here turns a lot of people away (many instances including reddthat.com do not block either hexbear.net or lemmygrad.ml by default for new users, so all those posts promoting literal violence against e.g. landlords show up immediately in their All feeds), but it is still awesome to see them trying!:-)

    Yeah, some people there have the worst bad faith I've ever seen. Anyway, at least some other people can read the comments and learn about Lemmy.
