I’m considering hosting one, and I’m just curious how much effort I should invest in doing it “properly” for everyone to use as opposed to just dicking around on my own for testing purposes.
just dicking around on my own for testing purposes.
Start with this, and if it gets traction, you can always move it to a more serious setup.
That’s pretty much what happened with this instance
Ada when are you going to start allowing trans people on blahaj again?
There’s still a whole 196 community you banned for not paying dragonfucker’s troll games.
I don’t think there is a huge need at the moment. Things will probably develop naturally. E.g. if some communities find they would like one, they would start one, with rules, blocks, membership, financing that fits their needs.
Non us based? In case things go to the shitter.
Yes. European, to be specific. Haven’t decided exactly where I’d host it, though. I have plenty of bandwidth at home, but I would prefer to host it separately.
I’d like some larger groups that would fit the same discussions ane memes as dankchristianmemes and the knowledge fight podcast subreddits
Do you mean communities? I’m a certified technocrat myself, so I’m all in favor of more knowledgefight, but my question is more about instances/servers. Decentralization is always good, but I was just wondering if Lemmy is already decentralized “enough” based on its current usage stats. (Although I do wish more people would use something else than lemmy.world, but I don’t think available options is the problem)
Ya larger umbrella communities would be sweet but to the real point I’m based out of lemmy .ca and haven’t noticed anything worth complaining about and as long I can see similar posts across all available instances I wouldn’t turn down thing being a bit more decentralized
To the other point I’m but a lollie wonk and even had a spelling error in my shoutout
