    Aussie.zone is, and a few other instances regularly have issues. The issues have been here for months, are not going to be fixed any time soon as the latest Lemmy version still has issues like the pictures one: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5196

    Some additional details:

    As far as hosting it on a different instance, this is just kinda a playful experiment. If it goes well anyone can copy the list and put it a version of it on their server.

    If we were to open an index community on let’s say lemmy.zip, known for their transparency and reactive management (https://lemmy.world/post/22643868), would you consider closing !index@lemmy.world and redirect to the new lemmy.zip community?

    When two similar communities coexist, the LW version always dominates due to LW size, so the non-LW version is always struggling, and people don’t know where to post.
