Following the other thread (550 upvotes and 366 comments at the moment: https://lemmy.world/post/16211417), one of the complaints that people had what that some communities only exist on lemmy.ml and don't have alternatives on other instances.

Let's discuss this and see if we can organize together.

I suggest to have one topic per comment so that is is easier to discuss.

Based on the activity on both [email protected] and [email protected], seems enough for now.

  • [email protected] but it is a bit dead at the moment. Although as I've been the main poster it is clearly my fault or a dearth of news. I have tended to cross-posting to them both, so I may just focus on this one.

Yes, I just posted over there that:

So if there’s an issue with lemmy.ml, boycott it - unsubscribe, give the other communities on more agreeable instances your time and they will grow and prosper. If there isn’t a relevant alternative start one.

And this is a key step - identify where there aren't alternatives and start them. It might also be worth compiling a list of the alternatives so people can make the switch.

It's also worth bearing in mind that Lemmy isn't like Reddit in that you could just passively consume content all day. If there's a problem, we all need to roll our sleeves up and pitch in.

Worth also mentioning that [email protected] is a good place to discuss topics on how we can help Lemmy grow and thrive.

I’m on .ml and have been considering making an account on another instance, but it seems like most major instances require an email. .ml did not require an email.
