Hello and welcome r/India Reddit Refugees to Official India community on Lemmy

I moved to Lemmy and was missing one of my favorite sub.

After missing it, I decided to create and make it available to others like me.

Welcome all and let’s create a healthy environment for discussion and sharing tips.

    For any newcomers to fediverse. It takes some time to get oriented and started. During that, initially all joins the same community that is available on the local instance before they get hang of Lemmy.

    This nature of fediverse is good, but it also creates multiple communities, thus it disperses out the users.

    So the goal is to make this as an official, so that all the dispersed users from other instances have a common community instead of sparsely populated small ones, which in turn limits interactions.

    Hope I was able to give you my reasoning behind making this one Official.

    And on another note, welcome :)

    Hope this gives all of us a common platform to interact with each other more.

      So ‘official’ here means more of ‘primary’ or ‘preferred’, and less of ‘authorised’.

      As long as the reasoning is noble and not misleading, I am good.

      But the reasoning also ensues having a dedicated instance. Is that the eventual plan? Or is that something for later and/or someone else to worry about?

      Also, thanks for the welcome! :-)

      I hope to play a part in making this community be more active. Already made a post to understand what kind of content flies here.

        You are correct.

        And most of the communities on this instance is related to India, so in future this could become dedicated instance. But for now, as you know many are still starting here and still new in learning the ropes. So lets put our efforts to bring all together before we go in that direction.

        :)

          Ah! I didn’t know. I haven’t gone through all the communities in this instance yet.

          In that case, this is great! :-)
