I suggest we stay on here untill an app with better communities support for Nostr is developed. While waiting we don’t just wait but actively support the developement. That means the developers develop, the people with the money donate and the people with advertisement skills advertise.

My proposal is to keep using lemmy with native good communities support while also step by step we migrate fully to nostr when it is ready.

As you may have noticed in the recent days EH was down for some time. The issue was that the version of lemmy that the site is running is nkt very stable. I would suggest we switch software with something more complete backend.

If @admin@exploding-heads.com has no issues I would like to run a vote. A vote that would chanve the future route of EH if the admin agree to follow the outcome of the vote.

The things that I would like you to vote are:

  1. Would you like to keep the site running?

  2. Would you like to ise another software like lemmy but better functioning?

    I agree and yes to both questions. If EH does permanently shut down, would you spin up an instance like it? Or would anyone? I’m down for nostr but I agree there needs to be an app with better community support or to me honestly, it’s just us shouting posts into oblivion. I’m not against nostr because it does provide a censorship solution. That’s why I use it. But I use reddit and Lemmy for the communities and sense it won’t be setup the same over in nostr I’m just not sure how that will work.

    1. Yes. I prefer the Lemmy/Reddit layout.

    2. I actually dont see any critical flaws with Lemmy.

    By defederating from the illegal servers and with some team effort its easy to cut down on spam.

    While I agree with Kapow on the sentiment that taking the server down highlights the problem with a centralized server it kinda sucks that once the federation got traction it gets shut down lol.

    Cant undelete the time spend growing the server and taking the time to upload memes, articles etc.

    Edit: And as european citizen im indirectly funding the Lemmy devs with my tax dollars so I like to use what im paying for 😎

    Let’s keep it around. It’s nice here and really, who cares if people defederate from us? We are the freespeech place, those places that defederate are not. We don’t want to support them any more than they us. Good riddins to bad rubbish, or however that saying goes.
