Another purge of empty communities
Another purge of empty communities
Hi everyone! We are once again purging empty communities. It's happening in a day or two. Make an on-topic post in your empty comm if you want to have it not purged.

Empty communities simply take up resources. I am fine with purging ones that are empty or even not getting any recent postings. Do whatcha gotta do!
-
Worse, for me, is that they clutter the community search and explore features making it much harder to find stuff that DOES have posts.
-
Completely agree

I would also delete communities that have 3 cross posts from somewhere else and then we’re abandoned.
-
That comes later. It's a lot easier to run a query on 0 posts than more complicated criteria.

Every time I see a post like that, the next thing is me checking if our communities are still their. 😅
But of course it makes totally sense to clean up a lil bit from time to time. After some bans and some leavers, it’s good to know that we don’t have communities without reason and mods. 👍

Thank you guys for your work!

Don't worry, my shiny new community went up in smoke with .ml. :(
-
Is there an issue with lemmy.ml?

-
Slightly related but is there a way to see when a community was created? What's the threshold for newly made communities?
-
nope, which means there is no threshhold.
