!mapporn@lemmy.world has been locked down in favor of !map_enthusiasts@sopuli.xyz

!starwars@lemmy.world was locked down today in favor of !star_wars@lemmy.world

Are there other communities we should try to consolidate?

Randomly discussed "privacy" with @ptz@dubvee.org

!privacyguides@lemmy.one seems to be the main one.

!privacy@lemmy.ml is quite active, but people are trying to move from there (see discussions on !fediverse@lemmy.world )

Other active options:

Maybe we should ping the mods and see if they can all agree one on that should be "the one"?

Thank fuck. The -*porn suffix really should have been left behind.

Wish Star Wars had its own instance like Star Trek, or at the very least wasn't on world.

As an aside, I also wish this community had an icon, I subconsciously ignore communities without icons.

they should be on the same instance.

if only to anger everyone.

I mean they're the same thing anyways. When Spock and Chewbacca raided those tombs from the Nazis with Han Solo, it really forced Darth Vader to admit to everyone that he was HAL 3000's father. To which HAL 3000 replied "I'm sorry father, I won't let you do that!"

And then they blew up the sealab 2021.

That’s the cool thing about the fediverse. Anyone can set up a new server at any point in time and host their content. No one is being stopped from doing that.

Oh… Don’t want to pay for money to set up and instance? Oh…. Don’t want to spend the time administering an instance? Oh… one may exist, but it’s not that popular so no one uses it?

Consolidation makes sense if we want a centralized system. But I came to lemmy to get away from centralized systems.

In the first case, having the community on sopuli.xyz rather than lemmy.world is a step towards decentralization.

There is a certain level of consolidation to be had to that community are active enough to survive. Otherwise you have plenty of inactive communities. Ideal from a decentralization perspective, but lacking as discussion spaces.
