Oof. I had added a couple of the communities from there on my feed here, since they had the largest gaming community for instance. I don’t want to have to make a different account for every major server, but the fact that one group can just decide to cut everyone else out like that makes it seem like that might be necessary. X.x

Regardless, I feel like isolating like this is just gonna make this whole Fediverse thing feel even more user-unfriendly for people who are on the fence about sticking around.

Well that instance will lose out to others, give it time and those communities will be created elsewhere and people looking for a larger pool of content will sign up on a federated instance.

For the other side of the argument, safe spaces, well moderated can be important so private communities need to be added to Lemmy with some haste.
