Linux gets a lot of love there on Fedi, so I think it would be cool if BSD would get some of it too.

For those unaware it’s a Unix-like operation system, one of they key differences from Linux is a more permissive license, so PlayStation 4 or MacOS are originally based on it.

There’s a list of existing communities:

Apparently, there’s also a Lemmy instance dedicated to BSD — https://blendit.bsd.cafe/

Note: No .ml communities, as my instance is defederated from them.

    this is definitely prime Blaze “consolidate them all!” territory lol. !Blaze@lemmy.zip

    There just aren’t enough people on the fediverse to support multiple BSD communities.

      Yup, you’re correct, makes me wonder if any of them would be open for consolation. I tried to request one on my instance, as it’s been dead for the last 2 years.

          Have you reached out to any of the community members, community moderators, or if inactive, instance admins?

          No, I haven’t, but you’re open to do so if you have the motivation. I already organized consolidation, so I’m aware of how it works.

            I’m already stretched a bit thin, and I know almost nothing about BSD, so I feel it would not be my place to do so.
