Is this a duplicate community? (sh.itjust.works)

One of the challenges (and benefits) of the Fediverse is the existence of duplicate communities.

What purpose does this community serve that the larger and more active [email protected] does not?

It's a backup 😉

I follow multiple "duplicates", because what happens when a server goes down?

What happens if a server ceases to exist?

It is a little weird sometimes, but ultimately, I'd rather everyone not flock to a single "popular" instance of everything only to have that...oh I dunno, get Steve Huffman'd.

The Lemmy.ml community is ran by tankies.

Fair point. This was not as obvious back in 2023 July as it is now.
