Enjoying exploring Aussie Zone so far. Thanks to @lodion, i think, for hosting! I’m an endemic lurker coming over from Reddit. Trying a few things on ‘Jerboa for Lemmy’, learning the ropes, so sorry for editing and other mistakes, please let me know when I make them.
To the actual point of the post,
Theres a few different spots, other instances/communities, that I’s wondering if ‘Aussie Zone’ should/can link the feed to. So we can begin to coalesce an Aussie user base, without all having to pile into the one instance, or individually find these other places and have duplication across communities of similar topics.
For example there is, lemmy.perthchat.org (instance) [email protected] (community) lemmy.nz (instance) (would probs be good to keep tabs on these dodgy lookin fellas) And i’m sure there are others,
Maybe i’ve got the wrong end of the stick, but it seems like we could end up with several concurrent ‘Australia’ chats leading to fragmentation and reduced engagement as a result?
Sorry for the essay.
Hey there, I’m not OP, but I am also new to both Lemmy and aussie.zone. Sorry to annoy you with my trivial questions, but how do communities and modding work here?
In generals, mods are appointed per community. They can delete posts, ban users etc.
On this specific instance (https://aussie.zone) I’m currently the only admin. As the need arises, I’ll grant people mod rights in specific communities. So far, posts on the communities here have been very few, so no modding has been needed.
Having said that, I’ll likely make a sticky post in the next day or so asking for volunteers to mod the existing communities.
