There’s [email protected] and [email protected]. The lemmy.world version has a more recently active mod, @[email protected] / @[email protected], while the lemmy.sdf.org one @[email protected] hasn’t been seen in 2 years. There appears to be a lot more recent activity on [email protected] especially thanks to @[email protected] and overall a bit more activity there. However, lemmy.world is the biggest instance and consolidating towards smaller but still active instances tends to be a better move for keeping the Fediverse decentralized and diverse instead of centralized all on one huge instance.

Either way, it would probably help to consolidate so we can have one active fox community instead of people trying to independently contribute to two communities that seem to have no difference in content. Was wondering what people think about which community to consolidate to, if at all, or if there is some difference I haven’t yet detected and they should just coexist.

Also, I followed this guide in the sidebar and am wondering why it says to page relevant users in a top-level comment. Do user mentions just not work in a post so it has to be a comment?

EDIT: You know what, I can test that myself since I have alts. @[email protected], @[email protected], hi! An hour after the self-ping, both in post and in comment, neither account received a notification

    But how about just creating a new community on sh.itjust.works, blahaj.zone or pawb.social

    Creating yet another community on any instance adds to the consolidation problem we are trying to solve. As for those specific instances, blahaj is LGBT-focused, pawb is furry-focused, and sh*t-just-works has a bit of an awkward name. Not that there is anything wrong with these, but for a general fox community, something like [email protected] which already exists seems like it could be the smoothest transition.
