    Well, there’s a similar community on world that actually only has about 10 more subscribers than mine, but I post much more frequently to mine, and so it’s growing faster than the one on world is. I created it on email because I figured that would be a good place to get it to grow decently large since that’s a well-known instance and then figured I’d move it off at some point but haven’t figured out where to move it and haven’t hit the threshold where I feel like I should move it. I do want to eventually move it out for any kind of political reason, but just because that’s a big name instance. And I want to help contribute eventually to the decentralization a bit more. So I would want a smaller instance to put it on.

        I don’t do that because it’s not my community and it’s not my place to be promoting an alternative community in their community. Also, I’ve gotten to the same level of subscriptions as them without promoting my community in their community.

          I just checked, the LW community doesn’t even have any post, and the mod has been out for a year.

          If you prefer, you can also ask LW admins to lock it and redirect to your community.
