    I always advocate for consolidating !buyfromeu@feddit.org and !BuyFromEU@europe.pub to !buyeuropean@feddit.uk , but the mods of those two communities aren’t open to the idea

      Too bad, i’d be in favor as well. Even if two of them consolidate that would be a step in the right direction.

          Wanted to take my time to respond to respond there, but decided against it. They want it to ‘let it sort itself out’, so I think it’d be better to let it go myself. What I will do is be more mindful when commenting or upvoting crossposts on less active instances and don’t crosspost my own post to an instance I don’t think adds anything to the wider Lemmy community. Might decide to end my subscription to the lesser active / newer communities.

      Maybe we should tell them it’ll be like a European Union of EU communities! :p

      Why shall the to europe consolidate into feddit.uk (uk is not member of eu anymore) Why not the other way around?

      But yes, it‘s difficult to distinguish or choose between and follow the duplicates.
