Let's not consolidate everything to .world, if it keeps happening the fediverse will just have another reddit.
Agreed. @agent_karyo@piefed.world , you seem to be the main poster in the LW community, so subscribers would probably follow you wherever you go
I am good with moving over to the other comm if anything. I will ping cm000 a bit later, I am curious about their take.
I also am actively avoiding contributing to .world comms after the JL situation handling
Though I've always prioritized smaller instance comms before that, after that whole thing happened now I even make comms if there's no off-world off-.ml equivalent
I am not aware of the "JL situation", but I mind don't switching over to !OpenSourceGames@programming.dev. , so that's what I'll do moving forward.
Honestly, I just want vibrant communities on topics of interest to me that are not tied to US-style commercial social platforms.

The Threadiverse is definitely healthier and more resistant to falling into the same kinds of traps when we spread comms across smaller instances
