Humanities feels appropriate to me, but if there's enough desire we could

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Humanities is kind of a catchall. There are several communities that overlap with it, like Feminism,LGBT+,Creative,Music...
And Do It Yourself isn't looking very good either. IMHO, all three admins may want to talk first before adding another community.
any "work" or "antiwork" community would likely be heavily duplicated in scope by the proposed socialism community we might gain in the near future, so i'd defer at least until we know whether those users will be interested in joining the site
I'm down with the Socialism community being added sometime soon.
That one will be a lot of moderation work, with lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml federating xD
I mentioned this in a previous thread before the short term memory wipe of the weekend, but I hesitate to post anything in DIY because I presume it's for home renovations and I don't do that. Maybe, if we can add stuff to a sidebar, we can say "Make it, Fix it, Renovate it, Rehabilitate it - just as long as you've done some of it yourself, share!" or something. In my community chat we have distinct channels for "maker-space" and "home-projects", of which the latter is the "I gutted my bathroom and I'm in way over my head", and the former is "look at this 3d printed dildo laser cannon I made". Maybe that's all we need - examples in the sidebar? If lemmy even allows for that, that is.
@alyaza@beehaw.org Does this sound like a good idea? Currently, there's nothing in the sidebar.
yea do it
You are the only mod there right now. So, either make me a mod and I'll do it or you can.
whoops lol, done
😁
I'm not sure why you're nervous about posting on a federated instance that has the channel you need. Is it a moderation thing?
In general I like to rely on federation and don't lean towards "duplicates" on several servers, but I also understand the very different approaches per instance :)
(Also, while Antiwork exists there, I think a Work channel would be useful! You know, at least until the Revolution..)
