Remember that instance? I don’t seem to remember if we ever got a reason as to why it just vanished. Anybody remember what happened?

    I think it’s a format that can make sense especially if there’s a broad range of specific communities around a central topic…

    I think that’s how lemmy got started: It’s like reddit’s leftist subs like r/communism; r/socialism & r/anarchy created the lemmyverse and the idealogical clash with reddit’s refugee & moonlighting users seems to induce centralization for those users into a few heavily centralized instances that cannibalizes smaller instances that were created to be alternatives to the ones made by leftists; hence the deactivation of instances like lemmy.film and the multitudes of mostly inactive duplicate communities.
