So, replicating communities is bad unless it is you replicating them?
Having separate communities with very low activity prevents their growth. Consolidation can be discussed if the mods are okay with it. On the other hand, if there are issues with the instance where the communities are located, then giving a try at another version of the community might help.
I really hope that both !asklemmy@lemmy.world and !asklemmy@lemmy.ml, being among the most active communities of the instance, won’t mind me starting another one.
For the delay between LW and aussie.zone: https://aussie.zone/post/17712350
They currently have more than one-day of delay:

So, it is OK for you to do that but not for others, yes?
Perhaps it is the issue of control? Locking inconvenient subjects, like you just have done in this “your new community”?
I’m the only mod and I have to go, based on the history, I wanted to avoid coming back to a thread full of drama like the ones I linked in that post.
I’m going to find mods in the coming days. I’ll also reopen that thread when I’m back.

Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform? On top of that, I’m not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk

Sadly.

By “drama” you mean subject inconvenient to yourself?
Are those others providing most of the content on one topic for the whole platform?
Your point is?
I’m not a mod on !buyeuropean@feddit.uk
Are you a mod to “ask Lemmy”? No? This is why you created alternative community to it?
It’s kind of ironic, because I can just use all the arguments people threw at me recently about !buyeuropean@feddit.uk and !buyfromeu@feddit.org
- it’s fine to have several communities on the same topic
- if you don’t like it, you can just ignore it
- the mod team decided to keep it open, so it’s their right
One rule for you and different for the other people, eh?
Locking inconvenient subjects
And unlocked
This isn’t really the same thing.
What’s wrong with Aussie.zone
99.99% of the time you see the phrase “power tripping admins” it means “Someone asked me to follow the rules”.
So are you okay with this? https://feddit.nl/post/16246531
Here you go: https://aussie.zone/post/18420943
I’m not really understanding, is it you want to defederate from Aussie.zone because we’re slow to update?
Pretty much the opposite, the sync between lemm.ee and aussie.zone goes much faster than between lemmy.world and aussie.zone so having the !ask@lemm.ee allows you guys to interact without having to wait for hours and hours for comments to sync between instances.
Ah that’s awesome, I’m all on board
