Consolidating space communities? (sh.itjust.works)

We currently have quite a few:

[email protected] (most active, has had federation delays in the past)
[email protected] (active poster, topic-appropriate instance)
[email protected] (active poster, inactive moderator)
[email protected] (low activity, unmoderated)
[email protected] (no active posters or moderators)

Dead instances

Do each of these communities serve a distinct purpose? If not, should we consolidate some of them?

I think the ManderXYZ instance is a nice match for the topic, but I am interested to hear what others think.

[email protected] moderator @[email protected] is inactive.

Paging admin @[email protected] and recent posters @[email protected] and @[email protected] for their thoughts.

Would you be open to adding active moderators to the community?

I personally vote for [email protected] as that is a well-managed instance for the topics relating to science. The instance version number is 0.19.9.

I agree with you, that seems like the most suitable instance for this topic, in my opinion.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I'd be happy to moderate on mander.xyz if we consolidate over there.

Would you be willing/interested to take on a moderator role for that community? It would be useful to have at least one moderator with a local account.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I am interested in being moderator for that community.

Awesome, thank you! I have added you as a moderator.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

That's great to hear!

@[email protected], please add Bee to the moderator list of [email protected] at your earliest convenience.

Great, added. Thank you!
