the idea is allow the most people to be able to find our community and participate in this relatively niche hobby, having mirror communities also has the added effect of making sure we aren’t tied to one specific instance so if our main one goes to shit, we already have established communities on other instances.
Hi, just curious about the concept of having a main community (https://mander.xyz/c/ecospheres) and side communities (https://lemm.ee/c/ecospheres, https://lemmy.world/c/ecospheres).
What’s the idea or purpose behind this?
