I am glad to see more people selfhosting their own. Makes me feel less out. Had the same issues.

I think it’s more people tired of the pollution that took place, and trying to preserve the clean and friendly one we have so far.

I do personally agree with saving old ones, but I’d highlight them as legacy and then make only the admin be able to edit/create content there, with links to the new one still as suggested before.

Don’t burn books, but let’s not study incorporate the worst things and make them normal here. I think is the feeling.

I support the archiver program myself xD

I would be curious if there might be a way to give some sort of “attribute of credibility” that we could come up with.

I wonder if we could petition Lemmy.ml to make the adjustment? I’m not positive how the mod roles function just yet.

Right now I’m just using the web interface on mobile - selfhosted though so I got to change the theme to dark.

I concur and am actively researching this issue as well. I, for example created my own instance but am not entirely sure I should be the one to host yet another Selfhosted community. I am hoping for a dominate 2/3 of them to win out, preferably lemmy.ml as it was the first I discovered. Alas, you asked a very pertinent question that I think you should keep searching to find. I did see the owner on Lemmy.world actually responding to his thread…

We should absolutely instill the desire to keep this community alive though.

I will be happy to share and keep people up to date with my projects over on my Lemmy Instance among other places. Please feel free to write anytime!

Stay strong!
