Searching lemmyverse.net yields the following:

None of the communities are actively moderated, and only .world has activity in the past month.

Is this a case where consolidation towards .world is permissible, or would it be wiser to consolidate towards one of the smaller instances?

You forgot [email protected]

Of course, though I'm not sure the folks over there would necessarily appreciate an influx of Disney princess memes...

Count me in.

Give me a headsup if there is consensus about the place?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

[email protected] is unmoderated. Paging admin @[email protected].

Thoughts on closing vs. consolidating to the disney community on your instance?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I would go for [email protected]

Update: That one does not seem to exist anymore...

[email protected] moderator @[email protected] is inactive.

Paging admin @[email protected].

Also paging recent posters @[email protected], @[email protected] (@[email protected]), and @[email protected] for their thoughts.

Should we stay on .world or consolidate to another instance?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

I'll stay on .world until there's reason to go. So far no contenders on the rise and I'm not volunteering to start over elsewhere for the little posting we currently get.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

If consolidating might mean more posts and replies, then I'm all for it!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

Thanks for jumping in!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Personally, I say we go to another instance. We need to diversify the communities on Lemmy, and having everything on .world will lead to problems.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Excellent points.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

IMO if world is the only one with activity, it would make sense to support that particular community.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

In that case, we should probably consider finding an active moderator for it.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

Consider yourself hired.
