PSA: This comm is non-federated

PSA: This comm is non-federated - Lemmy.World

It just came to my attention that this comm is still ‘active’ on lemmy.world. As the main instance (feddit.de [http://feddit.de]) has been shut down, this comm no longer federates with any other instances in the fediverse, and is merely .world’s cached copy of the community. The current, federated main boardgames community is at [email protected] [/c/[email protected]]. Join us there!

I feel like this might be one of those trolls…
Oh huh, I was not aware of the existence of that one. Looks like the mod has abandoned it, though it’s peaceful enough for now. Wonder if SJW has a way to transfer communities?

Excellent Reads - A place to find and discuss in-depth articles of high quality - Lemmy.World

Are you tired of clickbait and the current state of journalism? This community is meant to remind you that excellent journalism still happens. While not sticking to a specific topic, the focus will be on high-quality articles and discussion around their topics. - [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] - Excellent Reads [/c/[email protected]] - lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/excellent_reads [http://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/excellent_reads]

So your wall of text boiled down to ‘we can, but we won’t because nobody cares’. That’s pretty different from ‘that’s not how things should work in 2024’.

You can dream that that’s how communities ought to work but they just don’t.

Ironically, that’s how most of us ended up here on lemmy, we as a community decided to move off reddit.

I’ve read it multiple times. None of it quite addresses why we can’t just move communities away from .ml en masse. From the votes I’m not the only one having trouble discerning your point.
Well yes, that’s what this entire post is about. My comment is just replying to OP that it’s a little bit more than ‘block and move on’.
Using the website interface, you can go to your settings and block specific instances from there.
It’s not the community mods abusing their power, it’s the admins of .ml. Their rule #1 is ‘no bigotry’, which sounds nice but gets interpreted in very… creative ways.
The issue at hand is there are way too many neutral / unrelated communities which are resident on .ml, and it’d be nice if we could manage to move some of them off.
