  • Consolidation of communities with similar moderation policies are regularly discussed on !fedigrow@lemmy.zip

    They make sense due to the issue you presented in this post

  • Settings include subscriptions and blocklists, so the new account usually feels quite similar to the old one

  • Happy to help, thank you for your kind words!

  • There are a few cases of vote manipulation: https://lemmy.world/post/29412312

    When those are detected, those accounts get banned.

    About the Misinformation community, I believe we both have different scopes of focus. I my community is more general, while the other community is focused on misinformation on social media.

    I see. You might still want to post on the other community to see if you could join forces on one or the other.

    There aren't that many posters around, and shouting into the void gets old quite fast. https://lemmy.zip/post/14347368

  • No, it’s not enough. We should be encouraging to have people posting more, not less.”

    Host them on your instance, then.

    I gave a very specific example to illustrate where Mastodon had become more relevant than Twitter. Again: it’s not about absolute numbers.

    I just checked the first two pages of https://news.ycombinator.com/

    No Twitter thread, no Mastodon thread. The closest links are blog posts from Medium or Substack, or personal blogs.

  • There is no particular community which is thriving.

    https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active_month

    47 communities with more than 5k monthly active users.

    It seems like that instead of focusing on the part where I am calling for more action, you decided to focus on what you perceive as criticism and you try to attack that as soon as possible.

    I didn't see a "call for more action" in that comment.

    !fedigrow@lemmy.zip and !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com are communities about acting to make the platform grow.

    they are by and large still on Reddit. Can you at least agree to that?

    Of course they are, the same way the vast majority of microblog users are still on Twitter compared to Mastodon. That doesn't prevent communities to thrive, as stated above.

  • Maybe that will push people to other instances

  • I reply when I see absolutes such as "all communities on Lemmy are dead", "all mods are bad ", "all communities are about politics"

    It paints the platform in a bad light and it's not accurate.

    Don’t you think that is a little bit sad that all you can do is this mindless pontification?

    Another example of absolute.

    I help this platform grow by regularly posting and engaging with regular users.

    Stop using absolute statements and I'll stop replying.

  • There is no example of subreddit community that had successfully boycotted Reddit and transplanted here.

    !fediverse@lemmy.world is much more active than /r/fediverse
