We currently have quite a few:
- !space@lemmy.world (most active, has had federation delays in the past)
- !space@mander.xyz (active poster, topic-appropriate instance)
- !space@lemmy.ml (active poster, inactive moderator)
- !space@lemm.ee (low activity, unmoderated)
- !space@sopuli.xyz (no active posters or moderators)
Dead instances
Do each of these communities serve a distinct purpose? If not, should we consolidate some of them?
I think the ManderXYZ instance is a nice match for the topic, but I am interested to hear what others think.
I agree with you, that seems like the most suitable instance for this topic, in my opinion.
I’d be happy to moderate on mander.xyz if we consolidate over there.
Awesome. @Bee@mander.xyz, would you be able to add Bitswap and Otter to the moderator list of !space@mander.xyz?
@Bitswap@lemmy.world and @otter@lemmy.ca, it might help Bee if you each make a post or leave a comment on !space@mander.xyz.
How to add mods to the community? 😅
Open the drop-down menu on someone’s post or comment. One of the options should be “Appoint as moderator”.
Example
@Bitswap@lemmy.world can you comment on any of the community posts so I can appoint you as a moderator?
Thanks! Made a comment here

Would you be willing/interested to take on a moderator role for that community? It would be useful to have at least one moderator with a local account.
I am interested in being moderator for that community.
Awesome, thank you! I have added you as a moderator.
That’s great to hear!
@Sal@mander.xyz, please add Bee to the moderator list of !space@mander.xyz at your earliest convenience.
Great, added. Thank you!
Thanks!
