Adding this as a comment, instead of soap boxing my own opinion from the post body:

I think we should sign it. Personally, I would appreciate Infosec.Pub defederating form any Fediverse instance run by, or affiliated with companies/corporations that have a stake in the data business or AI development.

I think you would be a most perfect fit here. I think a lot of people on this instance would be excited to have a vibrant crypto community here.

The crypto community we have here isn’t so much “lower quality” as it is just dead. There’s been just three posts there in the last year. I was going to suggest you ask the owner of it if you could take over, but it looks like they haven’t been active for two years.

I think you should just ask @jerry@infosec.pub or @shellsharks@infosec.pub if you can take over. There’s no reason to have two crypto communities, if one of them is dead; you get to keep your old identity of being called “crypto”, instead of “cryptography”, or something else; and there are presumably a lot of the subscribers of /c/crypto that would very much like to have an active crypto community show up in their feed.

Welcome to Lemmy, and to Infosec.pub - I hope to be able to say the same to your community!

I remember that the sound of his voice surprised me a lot, but I really like it. It honestly sounds a lot more normal than I would have expected - but I guess the voice is the difference between a god and a fake god!
