Hello, this community exists because !amitheasshole@lemmy.ml is deleted by creator, thus effectively abandoned by the creator. My problem is that there is already one in lemmy.world called !aita@lemmy.world. So AITA for keeping this community open, while the subscribers are wondering why there isn’t any activity here?
NTA.
A community existing on a separate independent instance shouldn’t be a factor in deciding if an aita community exists on this instance. Even though !aita@lemmy.world will have more traffic, this community should still probably exist because a local lemmy.ml option isn’t a bad thing, and we’d have an established alternative should we ever need to defederate lemmy.world for whatever reason.
YTA for setting the community language settings to disallow specifying English as an option though 😜
Can you explain what you mean with this? I don’t understand it.
When submitting, you can specify the language your post or comment is in.
Communities can set which languages they accept posts in. This community currently only accepts “Undetermined” as an option so I can’t state my reply is written in English. Other users can use this tag to filter out languages they don’t read, allow them to know what language they need to translate from, or possibly help accessibility tools read comments correctly to people that need assistive technologies like screen-readers, etc.
I haven’t moderated a community on Lemmy to know exactly where/how the settings to configure this work, and it’s not a big deal either way to me personally, but it probably wouldn’t be a bad idea to enable some options there.
So I should check for every community
