Searching lemmyverse.net yields the following:

Niche communities:

Niche instances:

[email protected] (empty, but on a topic-specific instance)
[email protected] (one-way Reddit bridge, serves a different purpose)

My hunch in this case would be to leave the niche communities and instances as they are, and consolidate the rest to lemmy.zip (most active users).

Thoughts?

I think no one wants to have anything to do with Tesla nowadays...

With that said, I'm toying with the idea of adding some aggregation system to Fediverser where the community mods can choose to automatically cross-post content from the Fediverse (not just Lemmy/Mbin posts, but also posts from Mastodon with certain tags), and the communities on the topic-specific instances could become this hub for consolidation anyway.

Huh, that sounds like an interesting feature. Have you read @[email protected]'s article on community separation? This seems similar to their proposed "communities following communities" solution, though without the crucial "grouped comments section".
