Yeah people have thrown around the idea of eventually doing something like that. So like you'd subscribe to "AccidentalRenaissance" and get all communities with that name as one feed or whatever.

Hope that happens.

Yeah I think people are trying to force/recreate Reddit in its entirety on a single platform, and that's not going to happen.

And I didn't think of it, but yeah having one to check out when the other one's down is good.

We weren't sure which to go with; also... there was a whole thing with the creator of the OG sub; we were a bit concerned that they would create those and just sit on them, so we wanted to go ahead and have at least one or two places for AR.

So we did one on lemmy and one on kbin (I think I put one on like... squabbles too?) (I should check that...) and will kinda go with whichever takes off.

I actually thought of you when I posted it bc I remember when you (or your spouse?) posted it to the OG sub and whatnot! I was like... should I try to get in touch first to see if it's ok to post it, and then I forgot to do that and posted it anyway lol.

Yeah that's the main issue w/kbin.

I actually prefer kbin.(social). It hasn't had nearly as much downtime and errors and whatnot as I've experienced on lemmy. Which is remarkable since Lemmy has been around for a few years whereas kbin is fairly recent.

Like, there are always growing pains, so I get it, and with all the influx of new users there can be issues, so not a big deal.

I think Lemmy's more popular mostly because for whatever reason it's the catchall name for the fediverse right now. IDK if there's any like (very mild) astroturfing going on, or the name is just catchy, or what.

[This is a photo of an older man on the left, wearing a brown sweater and tan undershirt getting a vaccine shot from a medical worker on the right in blue scrubs, a mask, hat, and protective goggles which have been pushed back over his hat. The man receiving the vaccine has one arm bared, and his eyes are closed. His features are worn and weathered, his hair is closely cropped, and he has a shockingly red beard and moustache that do not match his brown hair. He looks to be poor and from a rural part of the world. The medical worker appears to be a man of middle age with darker skin than the other man. He is in profile, and his features are hard to see as he is wearing a medical mask and a hat which obscure his face. He appears to have sideburns and black hair. They are sat in front of a concrete wall which is painted dark blue/gray on the top and red on the bottom. The overall photo is subdued with dark colors.]

You rang? XD

Also we are back to allowing pet, kids, and sports pics as long as they look Renaissance. Thanks for asking about us!
