Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto New Communities@lemmy.world•AskMenOver30 - a place for supportive and friendly conversations among adults over 30English3·7 hours agoI’m just pointing this out as I was following !askmenover30@lemm.ee , and it never got really active.
As you said, the majority of Lemmy is probably men over 30 years old.
That said, good luck!
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Now that PewDiePie is on his Linux/engineering arc, could he help boost the Fediverse?English7·10 hours agoI haven’t ever followed it. Do we know if him adopting Linux have an effect on his audience?
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto New Communities@lemmy.world•AskMenOver30 - a place for supportive and friendly conversations among adults over 30English30·10 hours agoThat might be me, but I feel like Lemmy’s general Ask communities are small/quiet enough for questions targeting a certain demographics to be asked there
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Lemm.ee communities migration megathreadEnglish11·10 hours agoFor Lego, !lego@piefed.social could probably be considered as the one, especially with the mod of the former community now a mod there

Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Lemm.ee communities migration megathreadEnglish6·10 hours agoNice recap!
For !yurop@lemm.ee , there’s kind of a (friendly) split
- !casualeurope@piefed.social for casual conversations between Europeans
- !YUROP@feddit.org for memes about European politics
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fediverse@lemmy.world•lemm.ee is shutting down at the end of this monthEnglish1·1 day agoAgreed
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comOPto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Voyager changed the default instance to lemmy.zipEnglish4·1 day agoI was trying to show that it’s easier said than done.
Same for the region choice, we all learned that Lemm.ee was closing 24 hours ago. The Voyager dev made the best choice with the small timeframe, he’ll probably revisit down the line.
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comOPto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Voyager changed the default instance to lemmy.zipEnglish3·1 day agoWhich instance would you use instead of lemmy.zip?
From another post
- Lemmy.world is too big
- sh.itjust.works names contains “shit”, which can deter users
- lemmy.ca is Canadian-centric
- feddit.org, is German-centric, but technically English speaking too
- dbzer0 federates hexbear
- programming.dev is topic-centric
- blahaj is queer-focused
- discuss.tchncs.de has a difficult name
- lemmy.sdf.org does not defederate anyone
- beehaw defederates LW and SJW
- infosec.pub is topic-centric
- aussie.zone is country-centric
- midwest.social is region-centric

There’s a reason lemm.ee was the previous default instance.
Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Is there a quick way to know which instance might need mods?English10·1 day agoThank you for offering, some communities might ask you for help!
Personally I tend to try to find active members who are known to be positive in the community before reaching out to them and offering them a mod position. It’s easier for them to mod if they’re already invested in the community.
Great list, as usual!

Blaze (he/him) @lemmy.dbzer0.comOPto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Voyager changed the default instance to lemmy.zipEnglish3·1 day agoWouldn’t the UK potential new joiners register on feddit.uk anyway?
I was happy to participate without having to find another instance for my communities
