Hello everyone,

The most current active community is [email protected].

Due to all the discussions that are now happening on [email protected] about moving away from lemmy.ml due to their abuse moderation practices (https://feddit.nl/post/16246531), should we consider creating an alternative.

[email protected] exists but seems unmanaged and I would rather avoid another LW community.

Maybe we could contact mander.xyz at [email protected] to see what they think?

I did the same migration a few months ago, from @lemmy ml to [email protected]. Frankly, I don't regret it; even being a smaller instance I've seen far more activity there, and I feel like the environment is safer to talk about certain topics. (The lemmy ml comm was a bit of a ticking bomb, really.)

Keep in mind that the focus of the dataisbeautiful comm might change a tiny bit, even if the rules stay the same. Older users already created an association between mander.xyz and science; I think that they'll be a bit less prone to post fluff, and more scientific data. That's actually good IMO.
