Hello Sopuli,

We have quite a few communities that have been abandoned / moderator has abandoned fediverse, so we are looking for moderators who would like to adopt some of these communities.

For the communities that we don’t find any people to moderate we will add a sticky post with information on how to adopt these communities and hopefully redirect people to an active community that has a somewhat similar purpose/topic.

List of communities below:


Hei Sopuli,

Meillä on melko paljon yhteisöjä, jotka on hylätty / moderaattori on lähtenyt fediversestä, joten etsimme moderaattoreita jotka haluaisivat ottaa joitakin näistä yhteisöistä hoitaakseen.

Yhteisöihin, joihin emme löydä moderaattoreita, laitamme pystyyn postauksen jossa selitetään miten kyseisen yhteisön voi ottaa hoitaakseen ja ohjaamme postauksessa käyttäjät samankaltaiseen, aktiivisempaan yhteisöön.

Alla on luettelo yhteisöistä:


Active communities in need of moderators \ Aktiiviset yhteisöt jotka tarvitsisivat moderaattoreita:

Communities that subscribers wish would be more active \ Yhteisöjä joiden seuraajat toivoisivat olevan aktiivisempia:

Some of the following are active communities, but all of them would need moderation \ Jotkin seuraavista ovat aktiivisia yhteisöjä, mutta jokainen niistä tarvitsisi moderointia:

Then we had a user who made an account, made million communities but left shortly after \ Meillä oli käyttäjä joka loi miljoona yhteisöä ja lähti sitten menemään:

Finnish cities \ Suomen kaupunkeja:

Language learning \ kielten oppiminen:

Operating systems, programming, tech \ käyttöjärjestelmät, ohjelmointi, tekniikka:

Spirituality, Religion, Philosophy \ Henkisyys, uskonto ja filosofia:

Hobbies \ harrastukset:

Random \ satunnaiset:

    We mentioned in the post that community locking and redirection post is something we will do for communities that don’t find s moderator and when there is a clear alternative (if no clear alternative we will point to a community that is closest topic-wise.

    Others also mentioned that some communities are just completely empty and could be just deleted, so we started deleting some of those!

    Sounds good!

      I’ve been using voyager for so long I didn’t realize cross-posts don’t update on web lemmy-ui when you update the original post. We already have deleted quite a few of those communities listed above and added redirects to some that users have mentioned in the original post!

        Let’s come back once you guys have sorted out the activities that should be locked, and see which one we can potentially consolidate with other existing active communities

          Sounds good! We’ll give it a few days and then I’ll return and ask here which ones should have a redirect post and to where.

          We already added a redirect post to those communities that people in the comments mentioned:

          • soccer@sopuli to football@sopuli
          • arab@sopuli to arabs@dbzer0
          • linux4noobs@sopuli to linux4noobs@programming
            • Lazycog@sopuli.xyzOP

              Ohh didnt know! You can sort that out with the mods :D

              I’m bit sceptical about moving a community to a really really small instance as you never know about those staying up and upkept. New users are really on the edge about that stuff when a community disappears. But I’m fine with it if you can sort it out with mods and they agree!

                To be completely honest I’m not completely convinced about that instance either, but even if we move elsewhere later, it’s probably better to have everyone in the same place for a bit in the meantime :D
