[META] Consolidating dad discussions at fatherverse@midwest.social (lemmy.world)

Hi Dads,

I made a post over in !fedigrow@lemm.ee about possibly consolidating the many dad groups down to just one (at least for now) to encourage activity.

The general consensus was that we focus discussion over at !fatherverse@midwest.social because, among some other reasons, it’s the only community that seems to have an active mod.

I hope you’ll join me in posting over there!

Except, this community is more active than that one. I didn't spot that the Mod was inactive because everyone else keeps it ticking over. We can always add a new Mod.

Ultimately this is for the dads on here to decide - you can keep using this community if you want to (it has a handy UK soin on things when you tend to find a lot of English-speaking social media is US-focused) but if you all shift over there and this quietly dies, we can shut it down.

I’d rather be part of a small UK-focused community than a big global-but-US-dominated community for something like this.

The good thing about Lemmy is that it's very much less US-centric than Reddit.

Lemmy.world, the largest instance, being hosted by a Dutch team is a nice change for instance.

Same. I’m sick of US-centrism and don’t miss it.

Where ma UK Dads at?? (They’re right here)

For sure. I can only make suggestions, and everyone is ultimately free to do as they choose! I’ll try to participate in the discussions wherever they are happening.
