Leaving Lemmy World (lemmy.ml)

I enjoyed my time being here and helping to grow this community. My plan was to keep things such as book of the month and show discussions going indefinitely. It's sad to say goodbye as I would love to continue to try my best at facilitating discussion and help this community become a great resource for science fiction fans everywhere. Unfortunately, I don't have a choice as lemmy.world admins have made the rather baffling decision to ban my account despite no rules being broken. Unless I hear back from Ruud on the matter and the situation is rectified there is no way for me to continue to enjoy discussing science fiction with all of you here. I'm unsure if I will attempt to restart this community on another instance.

Keep on loving science fiction. You guys are great. 🚀

Definitely. Lemmy needs to figure out a way to search more globally (e.g. Mastodon relies on tags for discoverability), but there are external tools like https://lemmyverse.net/communities at the moment. I think just as important is people understanding that you can still grow on smaller instances if you produde interesting content. Just start is a bit slower.

Having to use an external tool gets in the way of a lot of people just through friction unfortunately. Lots of the people here are quite techy I think which helps though.

I need to take another look through there though, I keep running out of content.

https://github.com/Fmstrat/lcs can help with this, and be run by the instance admin rather than the users
