Which is to say, it is technically possible for folks on the defederated community to post and reply to old stuff in the community that existed before defederation, but even then, it won’t reach anyone else.

it’s much more dangerous for the individual fish to be in a smaller school than to stay in the large school.
LW run was running 0.19.3 for more than a year after the 0.19.4 and later releases, preventing the LW users of using the new Lemmy features.
is safer for the individual to join a “too large to fail” instance.
Agree, but if you filter https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list by Active Users, and take any instance in the top 20, you’re as safe as on LW.
Lemmy.zip for instance provides monthly transparency reports on [email protected] , such as this one: https://lemmy.zip/post/35411310
who wants to invest years in a social media site just to lose your account?
I’ve switched instances several times since June 2023. I keep the same username and profile pic, so people still recognize me, and I still recognize other users who switched instances, or even platforms (e.g. switching from Lemmy to Piefed).
I know every time I see another instance get shut down or defederated, I’m relieved I decided to sign up via .world, even if it’s sluggish at times.
You’ll see similar reactions of people not on LW every time LW takes a controversial decision: https://lemmy.world/post/24135976
“Joining the fediverse isn’t hard bro, your instance doesn’t matter, just pick one.”
It’s true, especially in cases like this when users have 3 months to pick another instance.
“Stop using Lemmy.world, we need to redistribute to smaller instances.”
Also true. Should LW go down in 90 days in a similar way, is it better if LW has 50% of the users, or a smaller number?
[email protected] as a replacement for [email protected]
Good luck with your search!
Amazing, thank you!
We always put out calls before (major) releases, but very few ppl actually help test
Where are those posted? I think I always miss them, happy to help with testing before major releases
Amazing!
A bit surprising but to be honest
Also makes it easier to remember.
Great !
Hey,
I was the one recommending this community. Seems like there are 3 or 4 posts a day, so it doesn’t seem like adding beginner posts would be an issue.
Lemmy has a smaller userbase, there isn’t enough people for very niche communities.
Also, feel free to join [email protected]
Suspicious indeed
