As I’ve mentioned somewhere else I’d take all that in to consideration if it was a more niche sub - but it isn’t. It very much seems to be that a already existing community found its way to Blahaj where (almost) all of the contributors were happy. Then some mods arbitrarily decided that they didn’t like the instance and moved to… .world, of all places. Back towards centralisation and the possible looming spectre of interacting with meta users too.
Fair enough.
Though, I would call 196 pretty niche, just not small. That's piddling over word usage though, and not at all relevant to the real point you made.
I definitely agree that the moving was a bad call, btw. Particularly where it moved to, and for the same reasons you gave. I don't have a stake in it, I've always found the 196 thing a bit too silly even for my absurdist tastes. It still seems like a horrible way to handle everything overall.
