In a Fediverse, far far away…
I have been involved in a few discussions about how to help the Fediverse grow and diversify and one thing I feel is key is to have more specific instances rather than large general purposes ones. It helps people when they are signing up and can help give communities a home. I know because I signed up with feddit.uk, helped grow the place and am now part of the Admin team.
Or, to cut a long story short, should there be a Star Wars Lemmy instance? Today seems the perfect time to open the discussion.
After all, there are other focused instances like:
- startrek.website
- sffa.community
- literature.cafe
- ttrpg.network
- adultswim.fan
- dormi.zone
- futurology.today
- lemmy.radio
- hobbit.world
Could move across existing communities:
And there are a lot of potential others:
- SW Action Figures
- SW Books
- SW Comics
- SW Board Games
- SW Video Games
- SW Cosplay
- SW Helmets
- SW Lightsabers
- SW Galaxy of Heroes
Possible names? A lot of obvious ones will have been scooped up or you risk copyright infringement, but how about:
- Fediverse’s Edge
May the FOSS be with you.
Because this one is my most active account.
I used to do that (so add links to other accounts) on iusearch.fyi, but unfortunately that instance has since disappeared.
My other alts I still check from time to time.
Ah, reading your message again, I realized my Matrix address indeed wasn’t here. I just added it, it might not show on your instance because IIRC this information sometimes takes time to federate.
