Manual curation of great Lemmy discussions and threads

The ps5 community from Lemmy.ml is planning to migrate.

This... is an important test and something to study. Migrations across the Lemmy-verse are untested. I'm going to keep a close eye on this community and seeing if it works out for them.

No. .ml is being repossessed by the mali government and no one knows what will happen then. All .ml may lose their rights to their domain. I do disagree with moving to lemmy.world though, too much of lemmy is already concentrated on that instance even if it is so far very stable (except for the ddos).

I was investigating lemmy.zip recently prior to the Mali news, and if I had more time I would likely have chosen differently. Hopefully if lemmy.ml is actually at risk, the devs will prioritize a community migration tool for their own survival. If a migration tool is made, I will consider moving again.

I'm the PS5 mod if that wasn't clear
