So, replicating communities is bad unless it is you replicating them?

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 1 month ago

Having separate communities with very low activity prevents their growth. Consolidation can be discussed if the mods are okay with it. On the other hand, if there are issues with the instance where the communities are located, then giving a try at another version of the community might help.

I really hope that both !asklemmy@lemmy.world and !asklemmy@lemmy.ml, being among the most active communities of the instance, won't mind me starting another one.

For the delay between LW and aussie.zone: https://aussie.zone/post/17712350

They currently have more than one-day of delay:

So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?

Perhaps it is the issue of control? Locking inconvenient subjects, like you just have done in this "your new community"?

[-] FundMECFSResearch 6 points 1 month ago

This isnโ€™t really the same thing.

Locking inconvenient subjects

And unlocked

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'm the only mod and I have to go, based on the history, I wanted to avoid coming back to a thread full of drama like the ones I linked in that post.

I'm going to find mods in the coming days. I'll also reopen that thread when I'm back.

So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform? On top of that, I'm not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

I'm the only mod

Sadly.

I have to go, based on the history, I wanted to avoid coming back to a thread full of drama

By "drama" you mean subject inconvenient to yourself?

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?

Your point is?

I'm not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Are you a mod to "ask Lemmy"? No? This is why you created alternative community to it?

[-] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

Are you a mod to โ€œask Lemmyโ€? No? This is why you created alternative community to it?

I'm not a mod on

And a lot of other communities where I regularly post

Do you see me creating communities alternative to those?

[-] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 1 month ago

It's kind of ironic, because I can just use all the arguments people threw at me recently about !buyeuropean@feddit.uk and !buyfromeu@feddit.org

  • it's fine to have several communities on the same topic
  • if you don't like it, you can just ignore it
  • the mod team decided to keep it open, so it's their right
[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

One rule for you and different for the other people, eh?

[-] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 month ago

Coming back to

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?

[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

So, one rule for you, different rules for the others?

I knew you were a drama queen, a manipulator and a snitch but I didn't know you were also a hypocrite.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

If you can't see a difference between

  • !buyfromeu@feddit.org, where most of the new joiners were posting because they recognized the name from Reddit, while !buyeuropean@feddit.uk is by far more active
  • !ask@lemm.ee which is just offering another community where people can ask questions, and allows one instance to participate without a 1.6 days delay

I don't really know while we're still talking

a drama queen, a manipulator and a snitch

Edited, not sure how the statement doesn't stay valid.

[-] anamethatisnt@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

The edit should've been to change "three" to "four" not "banned" to "took action". ;-)
But honestly it seems he's just ragebaiting all over, so I imagine any reaction makes him happy.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

Yes that's pretty much rage baiting at this point

[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Think again. Slowly.

[-] IndianaJones@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

You're getting repetitive here

[-] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 month ago

Also, feel free to comment under each of my posts to promote !asklemmy@lemmy.world or !asklemmy@lemmy.ml , I wouldn't mind.

And definitely not ban people over it.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 month ago

@asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev , would you like to help me mod? You seem to be doing a good job on the LW version. I know you don't have a lemm.ee account, but it seems like with 0.19.9 most of the mod actions should work, we can at least give it a try

[-] asudox@lemmy.asudox.dev 5 points 1 month ago

Sure. Since Lemmy version 1.0.0 seems to be coming pretty soon (which should fix the reports federation issue), I'm assuming I won't need to create a new account on lemm.ee. The community is pretty small right now anyway, so I'm not expecting any reports at the moment.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

Thank you for accepting, you are now a mod!

I've just had two reports yesterday, but hopefully the number should indeed stay low

[-] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago

What's wrong with Aussie.zone

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 month ago
[-] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 1 points 1 month ago

I'm not really understanding, is it you want to defederate from Aussie.zone because we're slow to update?

[-] anamethatisnt@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Pretty much the opposite, the sync between lemm.ee and aussie.zone goes much faster than between lemmy.world and aussie.zone so having the !ask@lemm.ee allows you guys to interact without having to wait for hours and hours for comments to sync between instances.

[-] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago

Ah that's awesome, I'm all on board

[-] Corgana@startrek.website 2 points 1 month ago

99.99% of the time you see the phrase "power tripping admins" it means "Someone asked me to follow the rules".

[-] Kichae@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No, but they're not out there making the daily argument for the most active communities of the same name being the only communities of the same name.

I get that nuance is a thing, but maybe you are not the one to be the standard barer for this one, given how it conflicts with your very public lobbying for consolidation? I say this with kindness and respect, but it does make you come across as more controlling and manipulatuve than well intentioned.

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

the daily argument for the most active communities of the same name being the only communities of the same name.

Interesting how you think that's what my instance is, when I have said multiple times that !politics@hexbear.net and !politics@lemmy.world should stay parallel communities.

Nuance, indeed

[-] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 month ago

I'll promote it more widely later, in the meantime, feel free to chime in

[-] FelixCress@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

feel free to chime in

Don't bother folks unless the subject you are going to raise is convinient for him. Otherwise it will be locked ๐Ÿ˜
