Yeah definitely, having people join the community on this instance would be a good start. I really think hosting a server dedicated to antiwork would be great. A few things would need to be figured out for that though. The main things I can think of would be:
hosting costs, would need to spin up a VPS somewhere, those start out cheap ~5 bucks a months, but costs can grow for a bigger community so would need to figure out how to fund that sustainably, I’d be up for pitching in a few bucks a month
technical skills, we’d need some volunteers who’d be willing to do server maintenance, upgrades, security patching, etc
and finally need mods for managing the community and content
I just wanna say I really appreciate everything you do @yogthos@lemmy.ml , both in spreading class consciousness / communism, and helping spread the word about lemmy. Its a slog but we’ll all get there together!
Thanks, and yeah we’re all in it together. Ultimately, if we don’t do the work ourselves nobody’s going to do it for us. And can’t stress enough how huge of an achievement Lemmy is. I hugely appreciate all the work you’ve done on it. It’s amazing to see it grow and become a viable alternative to commercial platforms. Tools like this are what makes it possible for us to start taking control back.
I made a post on Reddit as per suggestion from @Blinky@lemmy.ml. Let’s see if there’s any interest in making it happen.
Hello!
Howdy! :)
hopefully it gets at least some people to check it out and see for themselves
