[https://www.reddit.com/r/ScamNumbers/] 1. Do not post personal phone numbers.
You are NOT allowed to post personal phone numbers of any kind, including the
scammer’s personal phone number. 2. No harassment. This community strictly
forbids harassing other people, for example by posting other’s personal phone
numbers to prank call them. If prank calling scammers, please to not overly
harass them. There is a line between a small joke prank call and completely
harassing someone. 3. No “Any numbers?” posts No “Anyone have any numbers?”-type
posts are allowed. That’s what the whole point of the community is. Sort the
community by “New” to see (possibly) active numbers. Other questions are fine
though. 4. No scambait videos/pictures without contact info Videos and pictures
of scambaits must include the scammer’s (non-personal) contact information
somewhere that is easily visible (title, thumbnail, top bar of texting apps,
etc).
With almost 40k subscribers on Reddit, r/ScamNumbers is one of the most useful online databases for tracking down scam phone numbers. Some use the information for awareness, while others take advantage by prank calling scammers to waste their time.
Whatever the case may be, we have a zero-tolerance policy towards personal phone numbers. We have enforced this rule severely on Reddit and will do the same here.
But why is it hosted on a .zip domain?
Edit: for clarification, I don’t have anything against having different instances. I’m just wary of anything using the .zip tld.
It’s for the best anyway. It’s better for the health of the fediverse when communities are spread out across a wide array of instances. The consolidation of communities on lemmy.world is not ideal. Good luck with the community!

I’ve switched instances from lemmy.world to lemmy.zip as .world was very slow with updating their server

Oh badd Google!
Great writeup and easy to understand. What would be a solution to this problem?
