Hello everyone,
There has been some discussions lately about the moderation of some LW communities (see !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com for details)
Which made me think that we currently don't have any active LW mod, the only remaining one being @UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev
So why would we not consider moving this community to another instance?
For people curious why moving the community to another instance would be beneficial:
- LW has a 7-days delay with instances like aussie.zone (https://feddit.uk/post/18336398)
- Having most of the instances on LW give a lot of power to the LW admins and mods, while spreading them out could be more ideal from a power distribution perspective
- Previous communities have already migrated successfully, like !casualconversation@lemmy.world
Instances option
- https://lemm.ee/ is nice, good uptime, skilled admins, and very low defederation list
- https://lemm.ee/legal
- https://status.lemm.ee/
- https://lemm.ee/post/401063
Alternatively, https://lemmy.zip/ is very well run
They regularly post very detailed updates on !home@lemmy.zip such as this one: https://lemmy.zip/post/27236300
They also offer very detailed information on those pages:
There are reported issues with recent Lemmy versions. It's probably related to that. Probably not a reason to avoid an instance.
Lemmy.zip, lemmy.cafe and lemm.ee all run 0.19.7
You have the link above to lemmy.cafe not showing the thumbnails.
Lemmy.zip and lemm.ee are fine
So this is instance-specific, the admin acknowledged it when I brought it up
