I’m being forthright because concentrating communities to instances has repercussions especially when the moderators of the new instance defederate aggressively or ban relevant topics.

Of course, but there is also a limited amount of instances available. We tried !privacyguides@lemmy.one, but it's shutting down soon.

If the privacy community has a really strong opinion about cryptocurrencies (which I don't think they do, as it's the most active community that isn't on .ml), we could organize a move to lemmy.ca. Although Lemmy.ca isn't maybe the best choice as they might need a Canadian-specific privacy community, and having both next to each other would be confusing.

Apologies if we didn’t discuss it before, I thought you and I had discussed the privacy community at least 3 times.

I vaguely remember it, but it's been a while, and my vague memories were that crytocurrencies could be discussed on other communities.
