Seems like there is an appetite from a few people from aussie.zone so that you guys can be kept up-to-date.
Pinging a few other people that are usually interested in this kind of stuff.
Totes into it! As a northerly person, I appreciate an southerly perspective. Do it!!
Nice to see!
im all for non .world/ml communities. I believe for the fediverse to scale, we need to spread communities out… especially popular ones.
that said one of the benefits of an ‘ask’ community is inherently eyeballs. the more people that see the question might have have input. people are difficult to herd into new things

Very valid point. On the other hand, even !asklemmy@lemmy.world isn’t that active (an argument brought up about people complaining with the new rule about no US politics - it’s not that busy in the first place), so we could maybe counter that by having a more active community, and promote it on the usual channels
@AsudoxDev@programming.dev, you seem to be the most active dev on the !asklemmy@lemmy.world community, have you ever thought about moving it to another instance, to limit the LW centralization?
I am not the owner of the !asklemmy@lemmy.world community, and I can’t just redirect people to a new community on another instance in a community I don’t own. You oughta ask the owner for that.
Also, would you be interested in modding an Ask community elsewhere, or do you have enough on your plate with the LW one?
Yeah sure. Though I’m not really sure if I can be an active mod with the way things are right now.
That’s good to hear, thanks! Regarding the instance, would you have a preference? I know you have currently on programming.dev, but based on !meta!meta@programming.dev, they seem to have a few issues lately (corrupted database), so I’m not sure I would like to host the community over there
Interesting to see “owner” for a community, I usually use “top mod”. Anyway, is this bluefrog@lemmy.world in this case?
Yep, he seems to be the current owner.
Thanks!
Potential instances:
- lemm.ee
- lemmy.zip
If you have any other in mind, feel free to suggest.
The aussie.zone admin already said they would prefer aussie.zone to stay Australia-centric: https://aussie.zone/comment/13030189
