Comment on [meta] Time to make a new home for this community, since lemm.ee is shutting down

  My information is a little outdated; do you know why some people seem to have a strong aversion to migrating to Lemmy.world?

    The general opinion is that having too much people on the same instance is dangerous from a centralization perspective.

    We see it now with the impact of Lemm.ee shutting down, and it is 3 times smaller than Lemmy.world (https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list)

    Some LW mods have a tendency to power trip, even increased by the concentration of communities on their instance

    Some of them even openly admitted that for them, federation is a secondary feature: https://lemmy.world/comment/14933488

      Thanks for such a clear answer! I’m definitely not interested in ever getting involved in Lemmy Drama, so it does seems like LW might not be the way to go. I’ll do a little digging; Lemmy.zip seems good, but feel free to throw any other suggestions my way!

        Last point for zip, this is where the majority of lemm.ee users are going: https://lemmy.zip/post/40323214
