Following the other thread (550 upvotes and 366 comments at the moment: https://lemmy.world/post/16211417), one of the complaints that people had what that some communities only exist on lemmy.ml and don’t have alternatives on other instances.

Let’s discuss this and see if we can organize together.

I suggest to have one topic per comment so that is is easier to discuss.

    Copy all the local only communities from each instance .world and .ml separately put in a excel spreadsheet control F search each community

    Feel like that would be easier…

    EDIT: I counted 50 pages of communities just for .world before I stopped counting. So that’s like a lot of fucking work…

    The only way this makes sense to do, is for an admin who has access to the lemmy database. .World database, to do this themselves. I’m assuming with their admin server privileges it would be the fastest most accurate way.

    But then they’d have to manually do .ml bc I doubt ml will do that to help them lol

      Feel free!

      On my side I feel like most of https://lemmy.ml/communities are already covered. This post is for communities that other people have already identified as “not having alternatives” (see complaints on the other post), so they should know them already.
