As some of you may know, [email protected] is now more active than this community. Reddthat is a nice instance, and having the community there allows us to spread the communities across the different instances.
As it is usually easier for people to subscribe to only community, we are thinking about creating a pinned post here, pointing to [email protected], and lock the community.
If needed, the community can always be unlocked in the future.

Thanks for your perspective! I agree we don’t want to be reddit. I moderate a few comms and IME pinned comments get totally missed. I’ve had issues receiving DMs a few times so I wouldn’t feel comfortable doing it by DM. The idea of decentralisation is spreading it over the fediverse, not just on one instance. Reddthat isn’t the primary instance so I think we’d be ok. I do totally see your concerns about censorship etc.
