Following the other thread (550 upvotes and 366 comments at the moment: https://lemmy.world/post/16211417), one of the complaints that people had what that some communities only exist on lemmy.ml and don’t have alternatives on other instances.
Let’s discuss this and see if we can organize together.
I suggest to have one topic per comment so that is is easier to discuss.
Wouldn’t https://lemmy.film or https://selfhosted.forum be better? Even https://libretechni.ca
Sorry to bring it to you, but https://lemmy.film/ has been down for probably six months.
What is the issue with dbzer0? It’s literally an instance with the largest piracy community of all of Lemmy
When I think of db0 I think of piracy or AI, Jellyfin is a media manager, when I think of it, I think of TV, film and self hosting.
Well, I’m pretty sure none of the Jellyfin users stream their vacation movies
At least one does. But needless to say, there’s lots of legally owned content sitting on many NASs all across the world.
https://libretechni.ca/ is also down on my site, is the site supposed to be up?
It’s back up! 🎉
Oh nice! Only one admin though
Is one admin bad?
If he decides to shut down the project, or something happens to him, the server will probably go down with him.
See vlemmy.net, lemmy.film, iusearch.fyi, and so on
Aha, makes sense. Though my beloved tf went down and that had multiple admins at one point.

But if the primary admin buggers off with the hosting and/or domain, doesn’t that kill all instances?

TIL
Yep, I guess its having an outage. It’s been fine for weeks.
Who downvoted this? Why? 😵💫
