If you don't like the layout of regular Lemmy, feel free to use these :) (They can also be used for instances other than ours. Except for mlmym, they only have a single instance mode and no default instance config)
And in case you're wondering why we aren't using old.lemmy, a.lemmy etc instead...
...it's because CF wants money for that and I'm not paying for that shit lmao
I think it would be good to make a faq post with common questions/answers which would include links to other posts like defederation stance, alternative interfaces and such and then pin it +include it in the side bar. This way it would be visible and organised while having only one pinned post and only one link in the side bar. At least that's the way I would do things if I was an admin but it's up to you guys to decide what's the most optimal thing to do.
