Dads of Lemmy, should we consolidate the Dad communities?
Right now on Lemmy we have a bunch of dad-based communities with varying levels of discussion. From the ones I can find, we have:
[email protected] - last few posts were about a month ago. Mod was last active 10 months ago.
[email protected] - last couple posts were about 2 months ago. The post before that was about 5 months ago. Not sure about mod activity.
[email protected] - last post was yesterday, with some other posts in past few weeks. Mod was last active 6 months ago.
[email protected] - last post was a few weeks ago, with a couple months in between posts after that. Mod was last active 10 months ago.
[email protected] - last couple posts were a week ago. With about a month or so between posts after that. Both mods were last active a year ago.
[email protected] - last post was 3 months ago. Mod was last active 2 months ago.
[email protected] - last post was about a month ago, and the one before that was about 4 months ago. Mod was last active today.
To help facilitate discussion, what do you all think about consolidating the dad-based discussion to one of those groups (preferably a somewhat moderated one, which just seems to be fatherverse…) for now?
Here's all you need to know about if you should consolidate. In general, every single topic will be best suited towards having one centralized community (Lemmy gasps!). To me the power of Lemmy isn't that it IS a series of seperate instances that can interconnect. To me the power of Lemmy is that it CAN BE a series of seperate instances that can interconnect.
And here's the difference. [email protected] is a hypothetical example. Lets say it becomes active, and the mods there get big britches. Well.........maybe they enact some policy that 40% of the community there do not agree with.
They are free to create [email protected]. They can create the instance THEY want. With THEIR rules.
But until that hand is forced, why split the communities?
@[email protected], do you need help to link this post in the different communities, with the message that [email protected] would be the main community?
