About a quarter of the communities here have 0 posts in them. We’re going to start pruning the 0-post comms in the next couple of days. If you have a comm with 0 posts that you want to keep alive, please make an on-topic post in it. Otherwise you’re going to lose it.
I shouldnt have commented here. The developer is sorry and is fixing their mistakes
There there, robot. You’re doing your best.
THE PRUNING BEGINS!
Is this process still going on? Is there a way to see what comms have gotten nuked - just in case someone wants to resurrect/claim it again? I’m trying to encourage various Reddit mods to come over here…
It’s not an ongoing thing, but every now and then I’m gonna check in and blow away some comms. There isn’t a list per se, but admins can see the full list of comms (it’s actually really annoying because there;s no way to tell whether or not the comm has been removed or not without clicking through into the comm itself – thanks, Lemmy!) and that’s what I’m going to try to use.
I still have a couple of communities that have 0 posts. Right now, I’m busy editing the community info by order (from oldest to the newest community) and also contributing. Thanks for this warning. I will try to create some posts on that communities
Any way to suggest a comm be pruned? Like, if the only post is “PRUNE ME” or something?
Yeah then message an admin.
Great.
Would be neat for something like that to be automated. Some sort of “custodian” bot that checks for no posts, and either a mod made a “PRUNE ME” post or there are no mods?
