There is now an Actually Infuriating community on Lemmy! Post things that are beyond just mildly infuriating. It's only mildly infuriating that someone didn't make this sooner!
You're viewing a single thread.
Why not reuse [email protected] ?
Again, thanks for mentioning it. I replied to your alt that I wasn't able to find it when searching, which is why it is now linked in the sidebar.
Thanks to your suggestion, anyone who finds [email protected] will also be able to find [email protected]
The issue is more about still another new community on LW while the existing SJW could have just been reused
I understand this point as well. This community was created as a result of several requests in [email protected] from people who were unable to locate the alternative. I did not see [email protected] suggested or promoted in that community, and I did not find it when I searched. Unfortunately we all know that the search built into Lemmy is not great.
Hopefully this new community will also raise the profile of the SJW one. I have included the link in the sidebar so that more people can find it. If this community proves unnecessary, I will happily close it and merge with the SJW one.
I appreciate the work you do in helping to keep the fediverse distributed. It is truly our greatest strength.
You created the new community yesterday, it's still time to lock it and redirect to the SJW one?
I appreciate the work you do in helping to keep the fediverse distributed.
To be fair the more I look at https://lemmyverse.net/communities?order=active the more I feel it's a daunting task. And new communities like this one not being opened on other instances does not help.
I wish the conversation happened before creating the community, but I don't agree that locking a community immediately after creating it is the best way to build a resilient platform. Unless there is some kind of automatic link forwarding that I'm not aware of. I'm making assumptions about what "Redirect" means based on my knowledge.
Is this the best account to reach you by pm?
That community is 3 days old, it had 11 posts, it's still very reasonable to create a meta post about it and point people to the SJW

If you lock the community and pin the post to the SJW one willing to post will just follow that post to the SJW community
There is a fancier version like what @[email protected] did on [email protected]
- ping everyone who ever commented on the old community using a script
- configure a bot to lock every new post and redirect them to the new community
But the last point probably overkill for a community that's 3 days old.
And for the first one, it can be done manually too
