Proposal to create a collective to own the topic-based Lemmy instances
Proposal to create a collective to own the topic-based Lemmy instances
I have a number of Lemmy instances meant for discussion groups around specific topics. They are not being as used as I expected/hoped. I would like to set them up in a way that they can be owned by a consortium of different admins so that they are collectively owned. My only requirement: these instances should remain closed for registrations and used only to create communities.
You're viewing a single thread.
Community collections should be a thing. Something like /cc/Technology could pull in lemmy.world/ other instances and collections of communities. It makes it easier if one instance dies, an instance de-federates itself, or just wanting to consolidate all the different
/c/Technologycommunities across instances.It would also be nice if communities had the option to vote on their admins once in a while. Having individuals lord over different communities is a problem in reddit.
Yeah I remember asking about it cause it was a feature that existed on Kbin https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/issues/486
I even created a dedicated thread on !fedigrow@lemm.ee:
Multi communities have been funded: https://join-lemmy.org/news/2024-09-11_-_New_NLnet_funding_for_Lemmy
Excellent! Thanks. Ill take a look at it sometime. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818
Last time I checked, there was still discussion on how people want this to work. Because its easy to say, but hard to get everyone to agree.
That's an argument that is:
- application specific
- agency-removing (only Lemmy devs can do something about)
- orthogonal to the stated problem
Im a dev. But you do you. GL!
