For the past 1.5 years I’ve been sharing nuclear news in this Lemmy board, building an archive of now almost 2000 posts.

My initial hopes were to build a community of nuclear enthusiasts that fled the reddit platform. That didn’t quite materialise, althought this board now has 600+ subscribers, making it the biggest pro-nuclear energy community on Lemmy.

I’m now going to shift my posting strategy to my main Mastodon account. This has two reasons:

  1. Nowadays I host my own instance and one of the first things I changed was to extend to character limit to 5000, instead of 500. This removed my need for Lemmy for quite a bit.
  2. More importantly, a big migration just happened to Bluesky and the posts here are invisible to Bluesky users. My Mastodon account meanwhile is bridged and can be followed.

The latter is actually relevant, to me anyway, as the “Energy Twitter” is reconstituting itself on Bluesky.

But there are still hundreds of you here, mostly Lemmy users no doubt. What do you want to see out of this community? I’d really love to hear some opinions on this!

As for people on Mastodon: follow me at @[email protected] 🙂

    Hi, I find it critical to have user ranking and choice for sorting algorithm on Lemmy. That’s why I don’t use Mastodon too much except if I want to follow somebody famous or influent.

    Thanks for all the fish <3

    I super appreciate reading your posts…

    Until I stumbled onto this community in Lemmy, I had no idea there was so much happening in nuclear!

    I’m not looking to be on Mastodon, but if there’s way to still see the feed from here, I’ll be avidly consuming it!

        You should be able to make post here from Mastodon by @:ing this community in your Mastodon post.

        First line of the text in post becomes title of the post in Lemmy so your Mastodon post should look something like this:

        Very interesting title
