Our little instance is closing to 6 months of operations and it occurs to me I never really asked for some open feedback from our peeps. So I wanted to start a discussion to see your concerns and comments in general. So tell me, in the context of the divisions by zero, what bothers you, what pleases you, what would you like to see improved.
Feel free to share your thoughts about anything.
I made an account here FIRST on lemmy, but moved to world a week in or so because that was a more active instance
When they stupidly banned communities from here I came back and literally have said out loud that I'm unsure why I ever left
It's a perfect home for lemmy for me (a weird lurker who loves piracy and shrooms and whatnot) and the "is closing" scared the shit out of me lol
1000% this. It's nice to have a place where people are also interested in the weird shit that I like/care about like piracy/cannabis/etc. Additionally, most people I know don't give a shit about privacy and don't understand how wrong the "I don't have anything to hide so what do I care".
This was the only instance that I felt like I immediately identified with, so that being said, keep doing what you're doing OP.
I also had to reread the "is closing" part several times hoping I was reading it wrong.
It was exactly like that for me. In the beginning I felt like I missed a lot of stuff on world but then I came back because they sanitized everything. This is the perfect middleground for me and the piracy community was also my introduction to the fediverse.
