I for one have stopped posting any content to lemmy.ml communities.

Nobody is throwing eggs out. I’m recommending one basket instead of another, that’s it.

Yeah, it should be easier to grow ten communities about the same topic than one.

If you want to grow other instances, do it with unique stuff, not stuff .world already has. It’s not like there no room left.

Get a game developer to start posting their stuff on your new instance. Get celebrities to start posting their AMAs somewhere. Get big newspapers to start their own instance.

Do something other than trying to kill the dozen successful Lemmy communities we do have. Federation is a feature, not a purpose, and it’s already doing its job by making .ml less relevant for a good reason.

Doesn’t this exact argument go for the few lemmy.ml eggs as well?

Yes, but it’s a smaller issue than .ml’s censorship issue.

Yeah, because people don’t totally cross-post stuff all the time, or subscribe to multiple comms around the same topic.

If you’re that pissed that I’m not listing .world comms, to the point of trying to boss me around (see emphasis on imperative), you can list yourself those comms. With blackjack and hookers.

Okay, full stop here. Cut off the crap - in no moment I’m trying to “kill” those communities in .world, and you’re being a disingenuous liar (or worse, a bloody moron) for claiming otherwise.

Not going to waste my time further with you.

!showsandmovies@lemm.ee has twice the number of active users compared to !television@lemmy.world , still people won’t move to it, keeping both communities active and preventing grow of a single community on that topic.

If you’re so in favor of growing single communities on a topic, could you please consider redirecting to the lemm.ee community? It’s not like LW is lacking in active communities

Same for !movies@lemm.ee and !movies@lemmy.world

I’d generally be in favor of some kind of cooperation agreement. I’d certainly promote the larger community over the smaller one.

We absolutely have allowed moderators to close and redirect their community off of LW…
