Problem - if you want to recreate a community that has fragmented after reddit exodus, which instance do you choose so that everyone who were spilled all over internet finds a way back together? (lemm.ee)

Can this be instantly achieved? Or is it inevitable that this process of reaggregation into single community will continue for a long time (months or even years)? Let's discuss!

I personally am not a mod of any subreddit. I just had this question arise in my brain.

Now I'm wondering if I should try and recreate r/CuratedTumblr here, cause they all just kinda went to either tumblr or discord I think

Please do! I miss looking at Tumblr posts.

... Not enough to actually go on Tumblr, though.

I don't know how to run an instance but I did find a curated tumblr community, but I don't think it's the same people: https://lemmy.ml/c/curatedtumblr@sh.itjust.works Also don't you have to pay money to host a server/instance?

Huh, it wasn't coming up in a search for me. I had to try searching for it like three times and the first time I clicked your link I got a server error. Well, I guess the Lemmy servers are a bit screwy right now. Thanks for the link!

I assume that creating a whole server/instance takes some kind of resources and cost, but I think just opening a community is free? I haven't tried it yet though.
