Should I move this community? (lemmy.ml)

I think I’m going to migrate this community to Lemmy.world or Lemmy.zip. I love PieFed, but I’d rather wait until things are a little more stable before I consider PieFed.social.

I think world and zip are both fantastic options. Lemm.ee leaves me a little worried that any instance can shut down at any point. I’d prefer to pick whatever instance is least likely to shut down. I do think Lemmy.ml is pretty safe from shutdown, since it’s run by Lemmy maintainers, but I’m worried I’m reducing my audience since many people block ml.

Any thoughts?

You used mostly Piefed.social, Lemmy.world, and sh.itjust.works comments to make the claim that "many people block Lemmy.ml," ie you required them to make your argument. Recommending .zip isn't the point. Further, you grabbed a handful of comments, that's hardly a comprehensive study on the rate of blocking Lemmy.ml. It's shaky evidence at best.

Secondly, as I stated, the reasons you are anti-Lemmy.ml are three-fold:

  1. You always appear in Lemmy.ml drama threads pushing alternatives

  2. You try to build a case that Lemmy.ml is widely blocked with little evidence

  3. You defend putting Hexbear and Lemmygrad as default blocks that instance admins have to manually unblock, same as CSAM and spam

Again, why not just admit that you have personal reasons to want to do this? It's clear. I'm not going to reply anymore, this is a waste of both of our time.

  • lemmy.ml and lemmygrad and hexbear are not the same, not sure why you are trying to put them in the same space.
  • alternatives are 'fediverse structure', trying to keep all the communities on lemmy.ml goes 'against its structure'

Maybe the third time will be the charm, you didn’t answer my previous point: I’m literally proposing Lemmy.zip over Lemmy.world as it federates with lemmy.ml

Such an anti-lemmy.ml stance, pushing for an instance that federates with lemmy.ml
