there is an active poster on !privacy@programming.dev
!privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com is mostly me and @cm0002@lemmy.world
I think it would be beneficial to consolidate on one community rather than crosspost content from one to the other

I tried to reach out to the active poster, who posted to the lemmy.dbzer0 community in the past before switching back to programming.dev, and I guess they disagree with some of the stances of dbzer0 (probably the pro AI one)

Programming.dev has a few hiccups from time to time, but for a few months it has been stable

What do people think?

Not an active poster, but when I do post in privacy community it's !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com simply because programming.dev is loose with defederation. While I don't agree with certain instances political ideology something like privacy communities reach being limited because of it makes no sense.

I'll echo what others have said though that this will get resolved with multi-community support which was funded by NLnet grant. While consolidating now might seem like a good idea to help community growth, I think it's more damaging longer term than waiting for technical solution.

I had a quick look at https://programming.dev/instances , any instance you think shouldn't be there? It seems to be mostly Mastodon instances, and outdated Lemmy instances

multi-community support

We've been waiting for a while now, I guess I'm just a bit tired
