  • But blaze, you are the top (still active) mod for that comm, so I would reach out to you LMAO

    • I'd just like to point out (or remind) that .cafe does not federate with .ml. All inter-node communication is dropped.

      • Oh yea I know, it's why I like it here 😂 luckily the other mod account is a sopuli account so that's fine

    • The active mod is someone else, I would rather take a hands off approach for this one, I did enough community migrations with the lemm.ee shutdown, I'll let you and the other mod discuss and organize polls

      • @serfraser@sopuli.xyz I created this comm as there was no non-.ml version at the time, considering the problems with Lemmy ml would you consider migrating !fantasy@lemmy.ml here?

        • Depends really. I can't commit to something that'll impact what little community we have over there without running it by the members first. I'm not clued in on this place and I'm not experienced with migrating. Would ml users still have access?

          • Sorry, just saw your reply now while scrolling for something else

            Lemmy.cafe is defederated from the entire triad, which is the allure.

            Migrating a comm isn't too involved, all old content stays in place but the comm gets locked for new posts to mods only and you change the display name to something like "Moving to X comm" (search for the television comm for an example of when !showsandmovies@lemm.ee moved)

            Looking at the comm, it looks like you have 3.4k subscribers, but only ~500 of that are .ml users. But subscribers are a very poor metric, because that number is often inflated with dead accounts. Especially considering .ml's age and the comms age, id say the bulk of those subscribers are long dead accounts.

            Going by MAUs, !fantasy@lemmy.ml is currently at 66 users. !fantasy@lemmy.cafe is at 23 with just what I've crossposted there, so any kind of focus on it will quickly grow past that

            Plus, .cafe has had a bit of a...cafe feeling to me so having a fantasy comm on it feels rather fitting

            Alternatively, you could recreate it on literature.cafe which does fed with .ml and might be even more of a fitting instance and I'll close this one in response

              Seems like a good idea. I have an alt on literature.cafe that I can use to create the community and then appoint you two as mods
