All instances combined of Lemmy is already small. If 99% of the traffic of the all instances combined come from 2-3 instances and all of it is run by terrible people then I don't really see how going somewhere that has a handful of active people is a solution. Honestly that particular federated experiment has failed which is fine. More will pop up.

- izzydata 3y agoI was busy doing just that and grew a community to 10,000 subscribers. Things were going great and then the administrators abused their powers and took over the community and banned me. They don't follow their own rules so I don't see the point. I was in it for the long haul, but such a thing really destroys your motivation. It's a neat trick though. Let other people put in the work and then ban them and give their communities to their friends.
- mariusor 3y agoIdeally you do this in a community where you trust the sysop, or you are the sysop. See my previous comment.
