I did a search from shitjustworks for “reddit die” and did not find https://lemmy.world/c/watchredditdie so I made https://sh.itjust.works/c/watchredditdie (unnecessarily). This should really not happen. When someone makes a community there should be a “ping” sent out to notify all other federated instances.

And from what I know, if I post to !sh.itjust.works/c/watchredditdie only users on sh.itjust.works will see the posts until other people from other instances randomly come across it somehow and subscribe? This really needs to be improved.

    Lemmy is pretty centralized in practice and people are on Lemmy.world, mostly.

    It’s like hotmail or gmail. Default choice.

      Yeah, the whole point of lemmy is to not be like that… so it definitely needs improvement.

        The whole point of Redditors migration to Lemmy is to replace Reddit. You’re absolutely free to deploy your own instance and develop your own fork or extensions to Lemmy’s code so it works in a way you prefer on your terms.
