    Quite a few people have been really hostile to the idea of spreading across the federation from lemmy.world. Some just are fixated on the idea reddit 2.0 over everything else right now. Even more so, I’ve offered to host and help migrate over some book/writing related communities that are on lemmy.world and it like seems some of the mods in communities there are fine with doing but if they did so lemmy.world would just reopen the community with new mods choking the new community to death. When lemdroid migrated over lemmy.world overtook the community and reopened it with new mods, lemdroid still doesn’t compare in size to the android community they forcefully reopened.

    Alongside that, I’ve considered opening a general art focused lemmy instance to help spread things out further, but I don’t know if I could pay for two instances right now. Right now literature.cafe is out of my pocket, but I have a nice domain for it on hand and the spare time to make if there is interest and others willing to contribute, so who knows. dunno where to even gauge interest on that though tbh 🤷
