https://lemmy.ml/c/nba@lemmy.world Or !nba@lemmy.world is the community I’m talking about.

Seems to have gathered more people. Don’t know why, but in these quickly changing times chance is probably a big factor.

No reason multiple communities can’t survive, but realistically, as we know from Reddit, one will often dominate.

Sorry for the mod here if they were keen to start a community. From what I understand, moderators of a community need not be all on the same instance, so maybe you could help out over on lemmy.world. It seems they might want it too.

Lemmy.world should be a stable instance as it’s run by @ruud@mastodon.world who runs a number of instances including a fairly large mastodon one.

    I would have joined here, but the operator of the lemmy.world instance seemed to be better equipped to handle the uptick in traffic. I don’t mind moving here, but definitely come join us if that makes more sense (larger community and active mod over there)

      Yea, lemmy.world is probably a good place to put big communities as you say. It’s run by an experienced admin of a large mastodon instance and other instances too.
