It seems like when the big reddit migration happened, a lot of new users claimed magazine names on kbin instances that were popular on reddit in order to have ownership of them, but they seemingly have no interest in posting content to them. This has unfortunately caused lot of otherwise useful magazines to remain dormant, vacant, and unused.
Would it make sense to have these ghost magazines expire or have a system for changing ownership of them if no one uses them? It’s a shame if the good names are taken and immediately abandoned, and it’s not a great user experience to look for communities only to find so many empty and abandoned magazines.
I’m curious what opinions are regarding this matter. Thanks.
I try, but there’s only so much time and I’m the only one who actually posts things in my instances.
Sometimes all it takes is one other person posting content to provide motivation to keep going.
You’re not part of the problem we’re talking about here. You create and engage.
