Which GW2 community is going to be the ONE?
Which GW2 community is going to be the ONE?

Wouldn't it be better to merge than to compete?
Edit: Looks like the community on lemmy.ml is pretty much dead.
I created [email protected] because [email protected] does not have en active moderator and lemmy.ml itself is having a tough time dealing with the influx of new users, making the site very sluggish. It's getting better now, but the point of Lemmy (the Fediverse) is to spread out among multiple servers.
In the case of [email protected], which is different from Lemmy, I didn't realize it existed because a bug disabled federation between kbin and Lemmy. Were that to happen again, everyone on Lemmy would be cut off from [email protected].
kbin: This is a very early beta version, and a lot of features are currently broken or in active development, such as federation. Source...
[email protected] does have 17 more subscribers, but [email protected] have twice the amount of comments ;)
Edit: Disclaimer: I am the maintainer (administrator) of lemmy.wtf
Yeah, syncing (federation) between lemmy instances and kbin.social has only just started to work (again). I made this list to document which "lemmy reachable" GW2 communities I could find and cross-posted it to all 3 communities.
I hope that at least one will survive, since I'm not intending to ever go back to reddit.
[email protected] is pretty dead, but I don't see why [email protected] and [email protected] couldn't co-exist. They are even on two different platforms.
[email protected] is the one I chose after seeing the one on lemmy.ml being dead.
I think it would be better to stay here, as you said, lemmy.ml has some problems due to the huge influx of players, and the point of lemmy is to spread out, so let's do that.
I didn’t realize it existed because a bug disabled federation between kbin and Lemmy
Didn't they temporarily disabled it because we rexxitors were hugging them to death?
That’s possible, I just read something else.
People will follow the content. I don't think there is any need for merge. All of them can co-exist just fine.
Somewhat off topic but do you know how to subscribe to a kbin magazine from a lemmy server?
You need to search on your instance (
lemm.ee) for their community/magazine which should produce a link like this ...https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected]
... which you can use to subscribe.
Go to search and put in this link: https://lemm.ee/c/[email protected] then wait for a bit and the magazine should show up.
My preferred account is on Kbin.social but I can't view this community through Kbin. I get a 404 error. I wonder if lemmy.wtf isn't federating with kbin?
Are there any other kbinners here? I really would prefer to subscribe to all GW2 communities under one account.
Are you able to view the GW2 community on Lemmy.ml from kbin?
Well I can't create an account at lemmy.ml, so I guess I'm stuck with this one here, heh.
Unless
lemmy.mldecides to unfederate fromlemmy.wtfyou should be able to subscribe to any community onlemmy.mlusing yourlemmy.wtfaccount. And it even appears likelemmy.wtfalready knows about the community onlemmy.ml. Otherwise you would have needed to search once for it (fromlemmy.wtf) using the full URL.This is your local copy: https://lemmy.wtf/c/[email protected]
Stuck? :( :( :(
