There are a few regional ones that I’m sure some would love to see thriving, but I’d personally like to see an active SexOver30 community for those of us who are not spring chickens anymore. I know others have been removed for similar behavior.

    Total tangent, but have any Reddit mods of the big communities setup shop on Lemmy?

    I’d be surprised if they hadn’t, but I am surprised I haven’t heard of any so far.

      r/Android did, which was it’s own controversy. They setup shop on lemdro.id, and convinced the c/Android community mods on Lemmy.world (w/ 16k subscribers) to close that community, leave a note telling everyone to migrate to the former r/Android mod’s Lemmy community on a different instance.

        A whole instance for one community seems excessive.

        I guess they have trust issues after having to deal with /u/spez…

          Star Trek has also set up their own instance for basically one community. They might have 3 by now but still basically the same thing.

        Why do you say that? Especially for highly moderated subs (e.g. /r/ChangeMyView) I would find it to be a selling point.

            Wow. Maybe I’ve just completely misread the room then. I was under the assumption that a very large percentage of people moving to Lemmy were doing so out of support for mod’s position.
