Basically, title.
I randomly stumbled upon !ich_iel@feddit.org, which seems to be the new home of the former !ich_iel@feddit.de (they even added a last meme on the latter: https://feddit.org/post/22759)
I also had a look at https://feddit.org/c/main but my German is very basic, the most interesting topic seems to be a tutorial on how to migrate accounts from feddit.de to feddit.org
Are we planning to do the same?
This English speaking “europe@feddit.de” was always a bit out of place on a primarily German speaking instance. The same would be true for feddit.org, I guess. Maybe we should just depreciate this community and see if another English speaking Europe community takes over? As long as it isn’t the one on lemmy.ml (which has major moderation issues), I think I would be fine with that. I only stepped up moderating it on feddit.de because it was very active at the time and the previous mod stepped down.
I specifically voted for feddit.org with this community in mind during the name poll, because it was more international sounding than the other options.
If someone wants to create an English speaking Europe community on feddit.org I would certainly not be against it. Ultimatly it is up to the subscribers to decide where to go.
I pinned this thread in the community, so people can promote their proposed alternatives here.
So from that I gather that you personally do not have an interest in moving the community over to it.
This community is the biggest one by far. Shutting this would be bad IMHO. Is there a way to move it to another instance?
I agree. This one is definitely the most active one.
@poVoq@slrpnk.net, maybe lemm.ee can be an option? The .ee domain name suggests its’ European, and all of the communities are English-speaking.
lemm.ee seems to be hosted in the USA. I would very much prefer a european instance. lemmings.world and lemmy.cafe could be an option.
Is there a way to move it to another instance?
Hope I’m wrong, but I don’t think so.
You can pin a message to a new one, and lock the old one down, that works for most of the people
Is this intentionally english speaking, or does this just reflect the population of lemmy ?
I’d prefer a multilingual europe instance, ou chacun parle sa langue, para aumentar la diversidad.
The size of this community alone shows the need for it. That said, feddit.org seems like a good new home for it since .org is a language neutral tld and the server is german AND English speaking after all.
What’s the matter with this instance? I see that the main page doesn’t load.
Afaik the (sole) admin is inactive so the website wasn’t fixed when it went down.
Feddit.de? The admin has been having issues, which is why they started https://feddit.org/.
You can see that in their sidebar
Wir sind eine deutschsprachige Lemmy Community und entwickelten uns aus feddit.de heraus.
Feddit.org dient als Reddit-Alternative im Fediverse.
It would actually be kinda cool to have something like a feddit.eu server where communities from all across Europe/the EU can reside. But I am not against a move to .org either, except for the fact that they label themselves an English-German speaking community. I am not German. 😁
feddit.eu seems to be a one-person abandoned instance. To me, feddit.org seems like a fine place.
There’s also !europe@jlai.lu - but it seems to be exclusively francophone.

It is, the same way !europa@feddit.de was German speaking
Yes, and like feddit.dk is Danish-speaking. These language-specific instances make sense, and ideally we’d have a different instance for international communities like a europe-community. But, you know, beggars can’t be choosers and so it seems like we need to make a suboptimal choice :)
@EvilCartyen wow, does this thing actually exist? Lol
