As last time, this is probably useful
On the other side, you still want an instance that will last long enough.
We lost lemmy.film a few weeks back, that was a loss for everyone invested in the main community (about movies and films).
But I agree with you that we should spread about communities across servers. I like lemm.ee and sh.itjust.works, the admins seem pretty chill and really use defederation as last resort.
It’s good to see you around, you guys are doing a great job over there! I guess we’ll probably go with lemm.ee just to have more users able to access the community from their local feed, but thanks for offering!
Is anything good on your side, funding-wise?
Great!
Yes, Jerry is doing a great job with his services. The only issue I see is that with the “infosec” in the name, the domain might be blocked by company firewalls as they would tag it under “hacking”. I know they run a mbin instance, Fedia.io, but I would rather go with Lemmy as Kbin/Lemmy compatibility can be finicky.
What do you think?
i think its better to start with a join movies&tv comm, you probably want to grow it fast and managing two new comms may get to confusing/tiring for the mods, plus it will be the mods the main posters there until it gets big enough
Interesting, you have a point! I guess we could start with a common community, but named “movies@lemm.ee” and allowing both movies and tv content.
Having it names like this makes it future proof for when we’ll probably eventually split and have television@lemm.ee. If we go with “moviesandtv@lemm.ee”, when we’ll reach the point where we need to split, that might make things confusing.
it a good idea to have it on an instance that its federated to most big intances so lemme and lemmy.ml are good choices, with lemee being a bit better because of lax moderation and i think making comms there is easier
Definitely agree
Have a look at my post on !fediverse@lemmy.world , this instance (as well as a few others) went down recently
We are now at 43k, so definitely not maximizing
