    What about [email protected] which already has 13k subscribers? I answered a question there a couple days ago

    Yea look … diversity and decentralisation … these are good things (and things we can get better at)

    But when you’re duplicating topics the onus has to be on you to make it clear why you’re doing and what the differentiation is. Otherwise we can’t trust that you’re not just making a community so you can control it and don’t want to “play with others” that already have an established community.

    If mods have gone MIA … you can get the instance admin to help you take it over … there are other options, and you really should just try to clarify things.

    Beyond that … if you’re committed … getting multiple mods ASAP (besides yourself) is probably essential.

      Doesn’t seem to be very active. And since I am on here 9 to 10 while I am at work there needs to be better.

        Why not participate in the existing one instead of creating a new one? Even if it isn’t active, it’s got 268 subscribers already. Adding duplicate communities is just going to cause confusion and split the users.

        You could ask to be added as a mod there, or if the current mod isn’t active anymore, post in [email protected] and ask an admin to make you a mod.

        edit - someone else mentioned [email protected] which is more active.

        Ah so the best to create an active community is to split it even more.

        No. Decentralization is not inherently a good thing. The OPTION of decentralization is a good thing.

        The power of Lemmy isn’t the fact thzt it’s so fractured. That in itself isn’t a selling point.

        The selling point is that IF a community is problematic, you have the OPTION of fragmenting away from the toxic behavior.

        But until a community proves itself to need an alternative, fragmenting only serves to HURT the fediverse. Not help.

        One community with 50 users is 10x more powerful than 5 replica communities with 10 users each.

        Yeah, but the ELI5 communities mentioned here are all on lemmy.world - that’s not decentralized.
