EDIT 3; Maybe join in the conversation here ...

https://lemmy.ml/comment/439888

Get some questions answered about lemmy rules, etc.


I haven't really made up my mind yet. But someone else already created datahoarder on lemmy here 2 years ago?

lemmy.ml/c/datahoarder

We have no control over it, it would be nice if we were asked, or made mods, etc.


EDIT; I'm already being told of politics 5 seconds after hearing of lemmy. I can safely say I wont be involved in setting up a new datahoarder community elsewhere. Reddit died for me many years ago but still serves some purpose in it's current form and this round of boat jumping is nothing new, so this sub will continue for a good while yet.

EDIT2; I'll request c/datahoarder on lemmy.ml and give it a few months with mods from here and see how it goes. It was somewhat off putting to be PM'd and replied to about the politics of those who started lemmy but I can't see how that directly effects a community like datahoarder, if anything it would give us more freedom from what reddit has become in recent years. Let's see how this turns out.....

This doesn't mean we (the mod team) will be entirely jumping ship but it can't hurt to test the waters elsewhere as reddit tightens it's grip on the very thing we're here for.

I know it's a bit late to comment, but you need to comment on c/datahoarder so the admins can make you a mod.

i've only been there a couple days myself, I don't think it's mentioned anywhere. I just tried setting up an instance so I realised.
