All my homies hate .world and rightfully so.

Moving more communities away from .world is what we should be doing not the other way around.

As others have pointed out, if you try to move to .world people will just riot and make a new community elsewhere. Dont try, its a ridiculously stupid idea.

Again something the mods have to talk about. It’s something the mods have to discuss about (the community can take part in that discussion too, democracy and stuff). We could for example merge to lemmy.ml.

Most people don't hate Lemmy.ml, it's a vocal minority more common on some instances than others.

I'm sure this is the majority opinion on this instance... I've got a comment removed on .ml for criticizing it so no wonder you don't see such comments often

I got banned from Lemmy.world's political memes community for questioning why mods were removing comments pointing out the Democrat's involvement with the genocide in Palestine.

Overall, most users are fine with Lemmy.ml, the haters tend to be concentrated on liberal or otherwise anti-left instances.

To be clear: I'm not arguing for .world either. We should decentralize and focus on smaller instances

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 14 minutes ago (1 children)

Sure, but the way to do that isn't to create tons of general instances, but more specialized ones around a general topic. Lemmy.ml focuses on FOSS and Privacy, and Hexbear focuses on Leftist politics.

The question of the post/thread is whether the meme communities should all be merged on .ml and that's what I'm arguing against. I don't care when .ml people do .ml stuff on .ml. Just don't move everything there.
