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:
Hello,
Thank you for chiming in!
I also recall we advertised for more mods recently and didn’t get much response, so really what we need is a very active mod willing to build up this community.
Indeed, I didn’t volunteer as I already mod quite a few. Also, active members can help building the community without having to be mods.
If moving to another instance is the best way to do that, great.
Cheers!
