Difference between this Asklemmy and !asklemmy@lemmyml? - Lemmy.world

This Asklemmy and [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] [https://lemmy.ml/c/asklemmy] appear to be identical in purpose yet are hosted on two different Lemmy’s. Do you guys have plans to merge into one?

This is one unavoidable and actually desirable trait of Lemmy: the existence of one community in one server doesn’t stop you from creating a similar one elsewhere.

Perhaps some will decide to merge. Perhaps they won’t. Some might be badly moderated and users will avoid it, some might have great content.

Sometimes you’ll follow both because they’re both active and good. Sometimes there will be 10 different ones but one is clearly the dominant and most active and you’ll select that one.

This isn’t something you should worry about. Open the community, do you like it? Join in. Don’t like it? Don’t join.

Thanks for the reply.

It’s just a change coming from reddit where there was only one r/askreddit and it was the dominant and active one as there couldn’t be another r/askreddit. I’m still adjusting to there being multiple Lemmy servers.
