Community Meta Discussion

Hi all!

Another post from me! This time i wanted to talk about the lemmyverse and more broadly the fediverse.

We have a previous post talking about some tips and tricks with lemmy over here.

However, it was recently brought to my attention that some users of ttrpg.network might be going out in to other TTRPG communities in other fediverse instances, and either harassing users or asking them to close down and consolidate to here!

I don't consider this ok. I would please ask that you respect the rules and etiquette of other communities and instances.

Multiple communities across the fediverse for the same topic is a feature, and not a bug!

There's many reasons this is good, however, chiefly among them - No one person or team can be all controlling on a subject. If you don't like what I, a mod here, a mod/admin on lemmy.world, etc. do, you can merely subscribe to a sister community on a different instance! You can also subscribe individually to all communities covering the same subject and create yourself a mega-feed of all the communities across the lemmiverse. Again, this is considered this a feature, not a bug.

So if you're going in to other communities around the fediverse, please be respectful, nice, and participate in good faith! Doing this will actually help this community grow as it reflects well upon ourselves here, and seeing your username being from this instance will drive extra traffic to us!
