Can you create/moderate a community on an instance other than your own? (slrpnk.net)

For example, let’s say I wanted to start a community around some topic, but I felt that lemmy.dbzer0.com was better suited for it than slrpnk.net. But I want to keep my account on slrpnk.net as the account that moderates the community. Is that possible?

Sorry!

Nah, also butchered the wording. Two words more and my intention would've been clear, but I was too lazy.

I'm actually in favor of keeping the community, because that's just another part of decentralization. And I've never even noticed the other community, and likely would've not bothered to search for a replacement, had it just been closed.

Du schaffst das btw :3

The way it is usually done is that when locking the old community you point out to the new community

Just edited my post.

feddit.org is a nice community. Never had so much interaction on other servers. Basically I had a great first day at school.

I wonder, aren't you on lemmy for ~2 years already? Or do you mean the conversations in the matrix channel?

[–] a887dcd7a 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

My lemmy interaction was quite limited up until today.

Some time ago, when the first reddit migration happend, I took over a stale community. It faded and there was nothing to moderate, write or comment. Also most communities I'm subscribed to, do not produced so much relevant content. I fell back to reddit.

Ah, okay. I was lucky that my reddit account got banned anyway, so ... there's no temptation to go back anyway (and the UI is horrible, and the old client I used (Infinity) had a lemmy fork (Eternity) after a few days after the API stuff).

So yeah, welcome I guess :3
