Edit: !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com is now under active moderation!

Follow of this previous thread: https://lemm.ee/post/34088759

At the time we thought that !privacy@lemmy.ca could be it, but after thinking about it again I always feel like having generalist communities on a country-based instance seems counterintuitive. What if at some point Canadians want to discuss specific privacy laws or measures? Also other people tend to think that this community is for Canadians only.

As I guess the main objective is to offer an alternative to !privacy@lemmy.ml , there are basically two options

  1. Use !privacy@lemmy.world , but that's another community on LW
  2. Create an alternative community on a generalist instance like lemmy.zip

About !privacyguides@lemmy.one , the instance still seems unmanaged (https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/we-re-giving-lemmy-a-try-welcome-to-privacyguides-lemmy-one-x-post/12734/7). There was a mod action 22 days ago, so I guess it's still somehow moderated. Trust level still seems low due to the non communication of the admin on !meta@lemmy.one

Db0 seems like it would be the most obvious choice, to me.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 11 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Good idea, wasn't even aware of this.

!privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 5 points 3 months ago

I actually said that without knowing that community exists. I chose it because the theme of the instance felt like a good pick for the community goal. The pre-existing community is just a bonus.

Great pick but the mod seems inactive. One could ask db0 for mod perms.

Edit: i'm able to ask, but we should at least have 2-3 mods, i'm busy these days :(

@otter@lemmy.ca would you like to help mod !privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com as well?

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I'm happy to help, wherever we end up deciding to build it :)

[–] fxomt@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (2 children)

@blaze@feddit.org @otter@lemmy.ca I will send them a message on matrix and see what i can do.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Thanks!

[–] fxomt@lemm.ee 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I talked to them. In 3 days if the current mod doesn't respond, they'll make us the mods.

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Great! I actually don't even want to be a mod, I have a few communities on my plate already.

Maybe once you and @otter@lemmy.ca are mods, you can post an announcement there and ask for more mods?

[–] fxomt@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I see, I mistook a comment of yours as approval, sorry 😅

Thanks, will do

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 3 points 3 months ago

Amazing!

[–] Blaze@feddit.org 4 points 3 months ago

I'm already going to start posting a bit there ha ha

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ha! A happy coincidence. I thought I was suggesting creating a new community over there, not taking over one that already exists.

[–] fxomt@lemm.ee 3 points 3 months ago

Infact i already got permission from the mods to inherit it, and i have 1/2 mods required :)
