MODERATORS
 

update: we're compiling them now, new suggestions have about 4 hours to come in before i call it and lock the thread. thank you for all of your suggestions

following the defederations and given the inconvenience, it's time for a new round of community solicitations so we can add possible ones to our survey!

to make this easier for us, please follow a few groundrules here:

  1. make your suggestions top level comments. do not reply to people with suggestions! they'll probably get lost and i won't get paged if you make them.
  2. try not to make your suggestions super specific, because we probably won't do super specific ones
  3. try not to duplicate a suggestion once it's already made (i know lemmy's display isn't great for this). while imperfect, if you like an idea please upvote it instead.
  4. this is not intended to be a general discussion thread, so please try to keep that to a minimum. i will prune comments as needed if i think they're cramping the utility of this thread

additionally, we've already been suggested the following and those will be on the survey. i will prune any suggestion which is a duplicate of/is covered by one of these:

  • anime and manga
  • world news
  • tabletop gaming
  • vegan/vegetarian
  • education
  • parenting
  • camping
  • fitness

and for responsibility reasons we can't really offer mental-health related communities past !neurodivergence@beehaw.org, so please don't suggest those. thanks folks!

Could probably combine ZeroWaste, SelfSufficiency, AntiConsumption etc. into a single community focused on sustainability, reusability, and so on.

Like a "Conscious Living" type sublem

[–] admin@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

CampingAndHiking has been suggested a lot! I'm going to throw my hat in for that one because I am biased and I know a lot of people that would contribute to that community including my wife and I.

I personally encourage you to post about permaculture in !greenspace@beehaw.org as it relates to gardening, or in !betterment@beehaw.org as it relates to community scaled projects in the meantime

[–] lwgrs@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Definitely need a podcasts community. Would volunteer as a moderator, as I already moderate the Reddit sub :P

[–] PelicanPersuader@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

Podcasts would be great, I love chatting about those.

[–] DerBar@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Second a high strangeness for all the weird stuff out there.

[–] morgiedama@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

I do like the OutdoorSports idea.
