I'm being forthright because concentrating communities to instances has repercussions especially when the moderators of the new instance defederate aggressively or ban relevant topics.
Apologies if we didn't discuss it before, I thought you and I had discussed the privacy community at least 3 times. In fact I blocked it due to people cross posting content to it.
Of course, but there is also a limited amount of instances available. We tried [email protected], but it's shutting down soon.
If the privacy community has a really strong opinion about cryptocurrencies (which I don't think they do, as it's the most active community that isn't on .ml), we could organize a move to lemmy.ca. Although Lemmy.ca isn't maybe the best choice as they might need a Canadian-specific privacy community, and having both next to each other would be confusing.
I vaguely remember it, but it's been a while, and my vague memories were that crytocurrencies could be discussed on other communities.
yes... like [email protected] so when i see campaigning to remove the few spaces where i can discuss things I care about... it gets my hackles up.
I like programming.dev (I am the main poster on [email protected] ), but there always seem to be some technical issues with it, the most recent 11 days ago: https://programming.dev/post/31970658
The biggest issue was probably 7 months ago, when there was a database corruption that impacted the whole instance from 13th October to 12th of January: https://programming.dev/post/20515601?sort=New&view=Flat
Preferring one instance (dbzer0 in this case) doesn't mean other instances aren't as valuable, it's just choosing what is "the best fit" for a community
