MODERATORS
Having so many communities concentrated in one instance is a problem
Having an architecture that locks communities to an instance is a problem. They should be distributed across the network with no notion of a home instance.
How would moderation work then?
Moderation is also just an event in the protocol, just like votes or comments. Your instance would simply have to aggregate all those events, just like the current "home instances" do for their communities.

That's just mastodon tags
They still to be attached to an instance at the protocol level. Or you have instances which are barely network components rather than communities, but that's not what ActivityPub is about

196 is a fascist shithole and they are leaving blahaj because they finally acknowledged that fact and that there is an associated problem with misogynists and chasers on their platform. Good on blahaj for kicking out the trash.
They will be right at home on .world and frankly concentrating all the reactionaries there is good because it will drive other people to less shitty instances.
It's called a fediverse for a reason
Why?
Because then allowing flat-earthers affect all the communities: https://lemmy.world/post/24135976
Also huge delay with some instances
Also, lots of discussion under the announcement post in the new comm https://lemmy.world/post/24437552.
Omg the disparity is palpable.
The post you linked:
we are going to continue to moderate on this instance exactly the same as we did on blahaj.zone.
The "we've already left" style post on blahaj:
Why? That's a complicated question with a long answer! The primary difference is moderatorial and ideologial differences between my team and Ada's excellent team of admins...
Edit: so in asking whether the moderation will appear the same to the users, the answer is "well yes, except actually no".
Only 2-3 hours old and already 36 posts (less than a minute later 43, I'll stop updating this now:-), nearly 400 users, 174 subscribers (I guess the others simply voted or commented?) - this is taking off like a rocket!
The mods forgot the basic Rule of Lemmy: fuck spez.
Those mods almost pulled a spez
I mean... okay so technically they didn't, but only technically. I think I saw where you asked the question: who owns a community? They acted like the mods did, and now having FA, they are FO that they in fact do not own it nearly to the degree that the community members themselves do.
So now the community is split, and they may find themselves having to do a lot less moderation work in the future.
I contributed a post myself to help them out.:-)

I'm on LW and both communities seem empty. This usually indicates defederation, right?
No, that's something with your client. When I go to https://lemmy.world/c/yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com I see plenty of posts.
It's strange, when I'm logged in on the web app or use Sync I see nothing, when I'm not logged in to the web app it's fine. Also using the Eternity app works fine.
That is weird, maybe check your language settings? Make sure you have 'Undetermined' selected. If not, maybe log out and back in.

Sync has a bug where you can't see posts on your home instance.

A balloon is an accurate allegory for reddit.world. it may be big but it's empty of anything of substance.
Seems like they didn't get the memo that the entire point of coming here was to decentralize.
Then again /c/196 sucks so that's a fitting instance for them. Blahaj is marginally better.
More like Nonce Sense.
196 is a horrible community full of transmysoginists and chasers and literal fascists.
I don’t fully understand this.
While having one big instance is not ideal, isn’t the idea that it should be easy to move once and if the big instance becomes draconian?
I thought the whole point of the fediverse was not to get locked into a walled garden and be able to decentralize as needed, ending up with a few big players is inevitable, no?
The issue here is that the community was doing well on one instance, then the mods decided to move without asking the community.

Okay yeah that’s a problem.
Mods have been weird lately, my comment got removed for using the R word, not retardant.

Instance wars are so fucking pathetic
You would say that coming from that dungheap at lemmy.zip!
Hold on I just signed up here. What's wrong with lemmy.zip other than it's not the table you're sitting at?
Emperor is joking. Lemmy.zip is great, very nice adminis
when i saw that announcement post i literally did a double take at my watch to make sure it wasn’t April Fool’s Day
like that’s how dumb this idea was i thought it was a joke at first
