Did you check with the admins on lemmy first or are you bot posting without permission?
Let’s say I have a favorite sport and there exists a sub_ named: r/.
Let’s also say there already exits a Lemmy community and that community is struggling to get off the ground: [email protected]
I can see a value add if your project directly helps [email protected] get started; but I don’t see how it does. If anything wouldn’t your project compete with [email protected] and therefore hinder it?
It might be different if your project directly tied r/ to [email protected] but it doesn’t.
Testing feedback:
The links in this post don’t load, https://feddit.nl/post/3654890
Testing feedback: There appears to be a missing feature. When a post includes a gallery of images, no thumbs or images are shown as a preview. Only an empty gray box is displayed.
Thanks for the replies. So I guess USENET had/has an advantage here, as all USENET servers replicate “all” newsgroups automatically. To the extent that one server exists, the newsgroup lives on regardless of its origination point. In that sense, the collective work of all contributors is not lost until the retention date passes.
The ActivityPub proposal mentioned by @chris seems to be a good enough equivalent, at least for communities that are shared.
Checking out [email protected] I saw very few posts by bots. Mainly saw posts by you. I saw one post coming from alien.top .
What’s interesting is that only posts by bots have any comments. So maybe this could be a good way to get communities started.
Therefore, if it’s okay with the admins at the following community, I’d nominate [email protected]
There’s almost nothing happening there.
