Idea: if you mod a community on a lemmy.somewhere you should be able to migrate it to lemmy.elsewhere which would include all post & comment links being forwarded and subbed users having their subscription updated to reflect the new location.

I’m aware this would be a way down the road as user account migration alone is still not great but it would be a great feature for the fediverse to have to avoid centralisation and mod/server admin wars.

I’m running one. It doesn’t require a lot of resources.

If you end up with a crazy substantial amount of users it can get dicey, but if the community is that amazing the donations would probably roll in.

Interesting. What are you using to host your instance. Are you using a cloud service like AWS or are you running it on your own hardware?

A dedicated server. A bottom dollar one. Most of them you can scale up if anything takes off more than you expected.
