Hello everyone,

I raised the point recently already, but to make it short

there is an active poster on [email protected]
[email protected] is mostly me and @[email protected]
I think it would be beneficial to consolidate on one community rather than crosspost content from one to the other

I tried to reach out to the active poster, who posted to the lemmy.dbzer0 community in the past before switching back to programming.dev, and I guess they disagree with some of the stances of dbzer0 (probably the pro AI one)

Programming.dev has a few hiccups from time to time, but for a few months it has been stable

What do people think?

Yes, [email protected] is in a better shape.

It’s just annoying from a user perspective to have to keep up with all this intricate instance politics for a single comm. Maybe p.dev is the right choice just because it’s so uncontroversial so won’t cause issues.

Definitely. That's why I'm always advocating for a single community, all posters post there, after a bit mods of the inactive communities suggest to their communities to get locked down and point to the active one.

And yes, that's my feeling too about p.dev
