minimalism
About us
An open, user owned community dedicated to the philosophy of minimalism and the minimalist way of life. All types of posts are allowed, as long as they are relevant to the topic of minimalism.
Rules
1. Be honest with yourself and others.
The goal is to develop yourself personally and as a community. Seriously, if you’re not honest with yourself and pretend to be someone else, you’re not going anywhere. The first step to progression is acceptance, isn’t it?
2. Be polite to others and respects each others opinions.
Your freedom ends where somebody else's begins. Remember that there are people that may see things differently than you.
3. Keep it theme-oriented, up to date and relevant.
In general, all types of contributions are allowed, but the relevance to this community must always be evident and presented openly by the contributor. Posts that do not meet these requirements will be removed after a public warning.
4. Use self-moderation measures first before reporting.
This community is fundamentally built upon freedom of speech. Since everyone understands minimalism differently and we do not want to exclude any kind of content a priori, we appeal to the individual users to block/mute posts or users who do not meet their requirements. Please bear this in mind when filing a report

Any contact from the mod? This c/ is heading in two different directions.
You mean the sudden aesthetics posts? I was surprised about that aswell. No message from the mod. Guess we should ping him: !PropaGandalf@lemmy.world (is this how it works on lemmy?)
Yes, it seems that we are already seeing the usual split between the minimalist aesthetic and the minimalist lifestyle.
Maybe it would be worth to decide which content we want to see here and open another community for the other?
Hey yeah, just created the community a while ago and had a busy time until now. I'll try to specify the core aspects with you.
I don't mind the aesthetic posts when the sub is new and small, but eventually I would like to read more about people living with less junk.
Hey yeah I'm still here. Ill try to build this community together with you all.
Great! I can help as a mod and some stuff to the sidebar.
I mod c/Oakland but this community is more active.
Hey, I made you a mod. But please remember that this place is relying on the decisions of the users. Please dont use your mod tag to post personal things and behold from any from any attempt to use your mod rights to pursue personal interests or opinions. This is an adult community and users do not need to be patronised.
But now you are really one of us, one of us happy lemming sounds
In 100% agreement. I'm not the gatekeeper of minimalism and have no agenda. Only hoping to add.
Great, it's nice to have you on board ;) Didn't mean to sound offensive. It's more of a general info, so nobody can say I'm prioritizing anybody or whatever.
