On Reddit, there used to be subreddits for universities that were very active. There doesn’t seem to be an alternative here.
Where’s UBC@lemmy.ca?
You could make it?
Each university’s community should probably be on different lemmy instances. I think it makes sense to have the canadian universities on lemmy.ca.
It might also be worth hosting a university instance
Exactly. This is the great thing about the fediverse. So glad to see the influx of users on here.
Also, there used to be another UBC community on a different instance, but that seems to have closed.
I have just created one for SFU: !sfu@lemmy.ca
A university instance may come eventually, but I have approximately zero expectation of that ever happening.
I’ve also contacted the mods of the Reddit community and invited them to moderate or take it over.
