(My previous post about this, which I was very happy with, got somehow lost in the digital veins of the federated matrix, so here's take two)

Hey there chooms. I had a cool idea that I wanted to lay out for y'all in case it strikes someone'd fancy: a Lemmy community (subreddit) dedicated to anything and everything cyberpunk.

I don't have the time, energy, personality type, or special kind of insanity needed to run any kind of social group, but I do think it would be nova to have a place for like minded 'punks to gather from all around the federated Net, dedicated to the cyberpunk genre and its ideals as a whole.

The ideals being both punk — anti authoritarianism, anti capitalism, radical self expression and freedom, anti traditionalism, and the DIY ethic — and cyber — all the stuff I said before, but high-tech.

A community like this could be a great draw, and is uniquely suited to the underground, corporate resistance nature of the Fediverse. Could be a real draw, especially when the cyberpunk subreddit is little more than an Instagram for pictures of cities at night.

Anyway, that's it, that's the idea.

I can't find an option for it…

Folks, I need a little bit of your help. We started this little Lemmy instance without thinking much about it - lol.

So my question to you folks, what information are you missing. As I have noticed, our rules are a bit too hidden on this page. I will try to include them in the sidebar. Currently they are on our Legal page.

Is there any other information you need?

Small hint: Even if it's very cyberpunk'ish here, you are of course allowed to create communities or share posts that have nothing to do with cyberpunk :)

It's awesome that there's a Lemmy instance dedicated to Cyberpunks! By the way, is there a good Android app available for accessing this instance? Also, how can I connect with other instances on Lemmy? Thanks!

Oh cheesus, here we go!

There are upvotes for posts and upvotes for comments but on lemmy you're not reminded of an overall running karma total. The lack of this count makes me feel like there's a lot less pressure for every post or comment to be an absolute banger, witty, smart or something along those lines.

On reddit I would lurk a lot because I was none of those things but I feel like I can engage more now.

What do you think? Do you think it's a good thing, a bad thing or perhaps do you feel indifferent?

That's it, that's my whole post.

I miss flairs!

I think this decentralization and federation is what web3 is all about, without all the corporations calling everything to do with monkey pixel art that costs a million dollars "web3"

You now see a content from !main of our instance, isn't that great?

Corpos hate this trick!
