This is like the third time LW tried to be front-and-center in deciding how conversations should happen on Lemmy. You are the most popular Lemmy instance and most content is on your instance. This isn’t an experimental safe space instance to dictate how social media should work. Please understand that any weirdly aggressive stances you take affects everyone.
Well, first off, way too many communities are already there. What's the point of coming to a federated service if we end up with most of it in the hands of the few admins again?
Secondly, well, if you're happy there I'll leave it at that.
Yeah but this meme refers to abandoned communities. I get creating new communities on other instances, but there's nothing wrong with adopting an abandoned community that is already there.
Someone pointed out the other day that people want Lemmy to be like Reddit is today with the userbase Reddit had in its first years.
It's simply not sustainable. You're not going to have a sub for every possible topic with enough involved people to keep it going. Lemmy needs to accept that it can't just port over every niche sub from Reddit and expect it to work, you need to post it under more general topics first.
In the arms of the angels...🎶
Unless they're on dot ml or dot world. In that case just make a new community.
What's wrong with . world?
Sometimes questionable policy deciaions, combined with the desire to reduce centralization on .world.

Wholeheartedly disagree. If it abandoned and no one's posting then why revive? If it's active and unmoderated, sure.
No I agree with that. I'm thinking about active and unmoderated.
That makes sense. It's when there hasn't been a post or active mod in over a year where I think it's best to start over.
Or any of the Tankie Triad really (hexbear, grad and .ml)
Well soon to be Tankie Dyad since hex lost their domain name LMFAO
For just pennies a day you too can help a poor lemming find a home.
Happy cake day!
Oh no! The tear makes it so sad! 🙈
[email protected] to sée active communities that could use some help
Alright someone give me one, but make it a cute one or I'm having it put down
I have the perfect one
![email protected]
Yeah, pretty hard to "give it some love by posting on it" with THIS fuckery:
It's a reddit repost bot repost community
!animalwithhat died with its instance. I need it back (T_T)
Let's see these mods call for help or succession here, then; I've tried to contact multiple ones but never got any response.
As ias this heart-warming ads says, you can directly contact the instance administrator and propose them to become the new mod.They're probably not here.

[email protected] et [email protected] could definitely benefit a bit of activity.
Can I adopt the conservative comms from their abusive owners and put them down?
If only...

It’s easy when to post in other communities when Lemmy allows us to cross post.
