Hey all! Mod team of r/unixporn here. After a couple weeks of work on our end, we finally have a Lemmy community at LemmyWorld that we’re committing to moderating in the long run. Additionally, due to Lemmy’s federation, you should be able to crosspost between here and there even if you don’t have an account on LemmyWorld. Hope to see you there!
Should we maybe unpin this post? @StardustKyun@lemmy.ml
You might also probably want to add a few moderators as the only other one is Dessalines
@dessalines@lemmy.ml please gimme moderation so I can remove this pinned post.
Currently looking into getting some new mods here, post has been unpinned.
Thanks
Why are you moving instance? And why to an already packed instance?
Please just use this already-present community unless you have a good reason to fragment the group
There’s no good reason. There never is, other than the reddit mods wanting control and not wanting to share with those who already built community on Lemmy.
Acting like there’s only one true community and anyone else would have malicious intent. Jesus Christ man.
I think you are misunderstanding; we already moderate this community (check the sidebar).
We decided to move instances, as we don’t fully agree with the administration here, and the instance often seems to be down.
We are currently re-evaluating this decision, although the general public seems to be fine with it.

Are you serious? Man are you reading the comments?
On reddit when I reminded to other users that this community existed and they could move here you insisted to clarify that you’re not moving on Lemmy and reminding that the only official communities are on reddit and on discord. Now you change your mind and we should start cross posting, for what? So we can have that mod team who tried to discredit this place, instead of this community which is perfectly fine? Hell no, you made your decision, now you deal with it.
But why?
What is the point to swap instances? We already have solid community in this instance. Why not just move your moderators in this instance?
Considering this user made an account on lemmy.ml to post this, and the community in world was made by the same user with a world account, maybe they don’t understand the federation aspect correctly. It seems to happen a lot, and it’s frustrating because it leads to one huge instance in lemmy.world.
We have observed this instance over the last weeks, and came to the conclusion that it’s not a good fit for our community, as it’s often down and we don’t always agree with the administration on this instance.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !unixporn@lemmy.world
But we already had a unixporn community
