Discussion about the aussie.zone instance itself

Would anyone be interested in an AusFinance community here? I enjoyed the content on Reddit, and haven't seen an equivalent pop up yet elsewhere.

Does anyone think it would worth reaching out to any of the existing mods / users of some of these subreddits (like AusFinance) to see if they would get involved here on Lemmy?

As with all things user driven these new communities are going to need people to generate content.

I actually might start to lurk some of these larger Reddit's again to steal content for this instance to help get things started.

Feel free if you want to.... without spamming etc :)

Hmm, just 'c/finance'? Might make it harder for folks looking for a replacement r/AusFinance to find it.

That was quick, thank you!

Lol I actually disagree with this mildly. One big issue with Reddit was US defaultism so I think that an Aussie server just having Finance is a refreshing step away from that.

I agree with you... however "AusFinance" will be found whether people search for "finance" or "ausfinance"... but on principle I'd generally rather not re-use subreddit names.

Definitely!

I'm a fan of that idea, for sure.
