hi everybody, i‘m pretty new here and just want to see if switch from sysadmin subreddit to this place is an option.

i was searching for sysadmin communitys in lemmy and just saw that there are different sysadmin communitys on different instances? as far as i understand means this, that the participents got split in differen communities?

since the count of members is already a issue here in my opinion, how could we handle that? or why do you think different communities are the way to go?

just interested in your opinions

Just like on reddit there was /r/technology and /r/tech... Which do you choose?

Choose the bigger one of course. That's all. On Lemmy they can have the same name but the search feature shows how many subscribers there are. It's pretty clear usually which to pick.

But everyone can see all of them and it's not a big deal if you post to a smaller community because a ton of Lemmy users look at the All feed so it will show up anyway.
