Hi everyone! We are once again purging empty communities. It’s happening in a day or two. Make an on-topic post in your empty comm if you want to have it not purged.
You must log in or register to comment.
Empty communities simply take up resources. I am fine with purging ones that are empty or even not getting any recent postings. Do whatcha gotta do!
Worse, for me, is that they clutter the community search and explore features making it much harder to find stuff that DOES have posts.
Completely agree
I would also delete communities that have 3 cross posts from somewhere else and then we’re abandoned.
That comes later. It’s a lot easier to run a query on 0 posts than more complicated criteria.
Slightly related but is there a way to see when a community was created? What’s the threshold for newly made communities?
nope, which means there is no threshhold.
Don’t worry, my shiny new community went up in smoke with .ml. :(
Is there an issue with lemmy.ml?
The mali government has effectively siezed control of all .ml domain names, making a mess of any servers dependent on them for apps, services, and SSL certificates to name a few.
Thank you guys for your work!
