Toot

But i won’t hold it against world admins to not listen to people from other instances asking for communities to be locked, when the mods are still active users.

What does “other instances” mean in a federated context? I can use my LW alt, use it to post everywhere for a few weeks, am I now a local user?

But if a mod doesn’t want to oblige to your requests, then so be it, i think that is just fair.

I have another example for this !dataisbeautiful@mander.xyz

From time to time, some LW users go to the LW to post. Then all of a sudden, the paradox of choice is there again, and it’s less clear for everyone as well.

All of this while 2 of the 3 mods haven’t been active for months, and the last one just popped back from a 2 months hiatus, preventing me from requesting the community.

That’s what frustrating with the whole situation. Sometimes you also encounter name sitters such as lemmy.world/u/WandererLagomorph770

Have a look at that list of communities, and tell me this is not a name squatter.

Oh wow, i would have thought it would be more.

There are a lot of abandoned instances. Actually, it’s the other way around. Having a look at the stats, most of the populated instances are using 0.19.5 except LW, so it’s 18k out of the around 50k monthly users which are held back.

To be honest, I even forgot the picture thing was introduced then.
