Basically, title.
I randomly stumbled upon !ich_iel@feddit.org, which seems to be the new home of the former !ich_iel@feddit.de (they even added a last meme on the latter: https://feddit.org/post/22759)
I also had a look at https://feddit.org/c/main but my German is very basic, the most interesting topic seems to be a tutorial on how to migrate accounts from feddit.de to feddit.org
Are we planning to do the same?
This English speaking “europe@feddit.de” was always a bit out of place on a primarily German speaking instance. The same would be true for feddit.org, I guess. Maybe we should just depreciate this community and see if another English speaking Europe community takes over? As long as it isn’t the one on lemmy.ml (which has major moderation issues), I think I would be fine with that. I only stepped up moderating it on feddit.de because it was very active at the time and the previous mod stepped down.
This community is the biggest one by far. Shutting this would be bad IMHO. Is there a way to move it to another instance?
I agree. This one is definitely the most active one.
@poVoq@slrpnk.net, maybe lemm.ee can be an option? The .ee domain name suggests its’ European, and all of the communities are English-speaking.
lemm.ee seems to be hosted in the USA. I would very much prefer a european instance. lemmings.world and lemmy.cafe could be an option.
Hey, lemm.ee admin here - it’s actually hosted in Finland!
Oh, okay. iplocation.net reports it being hosted in North America.
Edit: it uses Cloudflare, that’s why.
Lemm.ee is hosted in Europe, that’s why it hosts !yurop@lemm.ee
I also think that choosing another instance as Feddit is a good idea. Also in terms of „supporting the concept of federation“.
So another not to big but also stable, european instance would be the perfect solution in my eyes.
Hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think so.
You can pin a message to a new one, and lock the old one down, that works for most of the people
In that case mods should do that ASAP, to give enough time to people to notice it before the server shuts down.
Also should probably create the new community, lemm.ee doesn’t seem to have one already.
Afaik there are no plans to shut the server down
Even if the server keeps running, not being able to access the frontend is a bit worrying
There is /c/yurop@lemm.ee
Edit: the problem with lemm.ee is that their block-list lacks some instances that are likely to be problematic for this community specifically, as seen on the lemmy.ml equivalent.
Which is a laid back community, so no news, probably not a good replacement for !europe@feddit.de
Is this intentionally english speaking, or does this just reflect the population of lemmy ?
I’d prefer a multilingual europe instance, ou chacun parle sa langue, para aumentar la diversidad.
I didn’t create this community, but there is another German speaking “europa” community on feddit.de and this one was as far as I know always near 100% English.
