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!

I'm not a moderator on kbin.social, no. I have an account like many to look for another community. We could make a posts there to refer people to this instance of course.

Not entirely sure if lemmy.world is the best candidate, because the instance is a bit too large to my liking and has been defederated by some instances. But I also recognize that many other users would find the size reassuring, so I won't object.

I did hear that the mods of r/belgium made a Discord channel (shudder) for the blackout, someone could also promote the lemmy instance there. I don't really use Discord so I'll leave that up to others.

I also don't know any r/belgium mods personally, but would be cool to have them at least active as users here. Again, feel free to reach out to those you know and get them involved.

Sorry, my misunderstanding!

Same here.

Me neither.

If you're talking about the defederation from beehaw - that's unfortunate but out of our control. There are still talks between the beehaw and lemmy.world admins though. I'm sure it will all be resolved at some point.
