I waddled onto the beach and stole found a computer to use.

Note: I’m moderating a handful of communities in more of a caretaker role. If you want to take one on, send me a message and I’ll share more info :)

  • This is a good point. @Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com I saw that you recently shared some thoughts on that, would you have thoughts on what we should prioritize there?

    I’m thinking of swapping the pangora.social line with a link to the new section, where we can

    • mention the issue with centralization
    • mention what to look for when picking an instance
    • link to Pangora’s tool and any other ones

    There are a few other considerations. For example, linking to a few specific instances might be seen as Fedecan endorsing them / showing preference to them over others. It might be better to continue posting recommendations on Lemmy as @Blaze has been?







  • This isn’t really a federation problem, and more that there isn’t a clear “winner” yet.

    Even on centralized platforms, you end up with multiple communities for the same topic, until one of them grows enough to beat out the rest. Then eventually a scandal might cause it to fragment again. There are also separate communities that keep going independently because of ideological differences. See the various international news subreddits

    The movies communities here were like that, but now there is a pretty clear “main community”
