Proposal to create a collective to own the topic-based Lemmy instances (raphael.lullis.net)

I have a number of Lemmy instances meant for discussion groups around specific topics. They are not being as used as I expected/hoped. I would like to set them up in a way that they can be owned by a consortium of different admins so that they are collectively owned. My only requirement: these instances should remain closed for registrations and used only to create communities.

I'm sure the Irish call it football when they speak English, but what about in Irish? If Google translate to Irish is trustable,

English to Irish Football = Peil

But also Soccer = Sacar

So maybe there's two accepted variants. But where does Pail come from anyway? Let's translate it back to English:

Peil = Very big potato

So most of the world plays football, some strange corners of it play soccer, and the Irish play very big potato.

I'd love if a native speaker could confirm this. #Irish #Gaeilge #football @[email protected] @[email protected]
