There is one at .world. It’s not very big, but it’s bigger than a brand new one:
That’s pretty new too, it was made within the last week, the biggest I’ve seen is Beehaw’s then Lemmy.ml’s technology communities. However, new communities are always going to be smaller at the beginning than ones that have been around for a month or a year, but that changes when people learn that they exist!
Don’t mean to disrespect, but what is your reasoning on building another community for technology when there are a couple already pretty big?
Federation is great, but fragmenting communities seems counterproductive.
It’s not much of fragmenting communities if people can easily learn about the others and it gives people choice. Not every technology community is the same. For example:
- Lemmy.ml’s focus is on all news related to creation and use of technology, and to facilitate civil, meaningful discussion around it
- Beehaw’s is rumors, happenings, and innovations in the technology sphere. If it’s technological news, it probably belongs here
- Lemmy.world’s seems to be about news
- Lemmy.einval.net’s seems to be about general technology, without a focus on news so far based on the post I can see, but it is too new to know for sure.
While the first three seem to be about news, the fourth seems to be about general technology.
Furthermore, in some cases fragmentation of communities is the very point. Lemmy is meant to be decentralized, which gives you choice in which one to go to. I don’t see how you think that is counterproductive though
I like technology, I collect technology subscriptions! Here’s my current list:
