On a separate topic, I am thinking about creating a more laid-back, relaxed community for Europeans, without news (as they seem to be the central focus of this community). I'm still investigating which server would be the best to host it, lemm.ee seems to be a good candidate.

I really liked YUROP on the spezSite, they had good silly memes about Europe and were eager to post pro-Europe stuff.

I joined a similarly named community when I switched to Lemmy, but it died off pretty quickly !yurop@lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz

Maybe we could revive it, speak with their mod, or create a new one that's active?

Interesting, thanks for the pointer! http://lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz/ seems down indeed, so I guess this one is lost.

I'll probably post a dedicated post today or tomorrow about this, I can ping you if you want

i'd love that, thanks!

It would be awesome to have a laid-back Europe community on lemm.ee, let me know if I can support you in any way with that!

[โ€“] Blaze@discuss.online 2 points 1 year ago

Great to hear from you, I'll keep you posted indeed!

That's for the offer, but isn't the kbin.social hosted in the US? https://kbin.fediverse.observer/list

Those news are from 7 months ago, I guess they changed hosting since then? The link mentioned always says US: https://the-federation.info/platform/184

[โ€“] FfaerieOxide@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I check that link, and wonder where it's getting its info.

Also, that link you sent claims MEDIA.kbin.social is hosted in ...france?

[โ€“] Blaze@discuss.online 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, I was surprised by this too
