update: we have a pretty good idea of what we’ll add to start, probably tomorrow. i’m unpinning this post and beginning to reply to posts in here with specifics. thank you for your suggestions to this point
no promises on any specific additions from me or the other mods, but now is a good time to gauge this.[1] for reference, our current 18 non-support communities are:[2]
- Chat
- Creative
- Do It Yourself
- Entertainment
- Environment
- Feminism
- Finance
- Free and Open Source Software
- Gaming
- Humanities
- LGBTQ+
- Music
- News
- Politics
- Science
- Space
- Sports
- Technology
try to be a little broad in your suggestions–this is still a site of just 1,000 people, so it simply can’t be as granular as reddit–but it’s fine if your suggestion is a specific subset of an already existing community or overlaps with one. Space and FOSS are some obvious examples of already existing overlap, and those communities work fine.
and even if we don’t add a suggestion in the immediate term, knowing that there’s interest makes it easier to do so later ↩︎
these communities can always be found at this link (or under the “communities” button), if you weren’t aware ↩︎
I’d love to be a part of card game and tabletop discussions :) The sidebar of the gaming community does mention it’s for all forms, video, tabletop etc. In that regard, maybe we just need to be the ones to start those non-video-game conversations.
Start organising games and posting gametales till the gamers get sick enough to tell us to make a tabletop community, sounds like a plan :>
