The Belgian community on the threadiverse (slrpnk.net)

Let's talk about organizing a Belgian community on the threadiverse (the reddit-like side of the fediverse).

Right now, the community isn't coordinated, there are multiple spaces that popped up after the blackout. There's this one, there's @[email protected], there's c/belgique, I think there's one on lemmy.ml too?

What do you guys think we should do? How should we reach out? Discuss!

Personally, I think that it would be beneficial to consolidate as much as possible in one place. 5 communities with 10 people will quickly die out, 1 community with 50 is a good start for something long-term.

Agreed, being spread out isn't the best way forward. I'm subscribed to this one and the one at kbin.social at the moment, waiting to see which one takes off the most.

I'm not sure which software is better. Lemmy is a bit older, so maybe more mature. But I've experienced problems with both. For instance: I can't see all responses to this post from my own instance, while I've seen more answers directly on lemmy.world.

I don't have the explanation, but at least I can confirm that this behavior is not specific to /c/Belgium, and it can be the other way around. I was browsing a community hosted on a remote instance. When browsing from lemmy.world, I could see several posts, from lemmy.world users, which were not visible on the community when browsed from the remote instance hosting that community. And those posts hadn't been removed on the remote instance after publication ; they only got published on lemmy.world's copy but not on the instance hosting that community.

Same here, both are good options anyway.
