update: we’re compiling them now, new suggestions have about 4 hours to come in before i call it and lock the thread. thank you for all of your suggestions
following the defederations and given the inconvenience, it’s time for a new round of community solicitations so we can add possible ones to our survey!
to make this easier for us, please follow a few groundrules here:
- make your suggestions top level comments. do not reply to people with suggestions! they’ll probably get lost and i won’t get paged if you make them.
- try not to make your suggestions super specific, because we probably won’t do super specific ones
- try not to duplicate a suggestion once it’s already made (i know lemmy’s display isn’t great for this). while imperfect, if you like an idea please upvote it instead.
- this is not intended to be a general discussion thread, so please try to keep that to a minimum. i will prune comments as needed if i think they’re cramping the utility of this thread
additionally, we’ve already been suggested the following and those will be on the survey. i will prune any suggestion which is a duplicate of/is covered by one of these:
- anime and manga
- world news
- tabletop gaming
- vegan/vegetarian
- education
- parenting
- camping
- fitness
and for responsibility reasons we can’t really offer mental-health related communities past !neurodivergence@beehaw.org, so please don’t suggest those. thanks folks!

Permaculture

CampingAndHiking has been suggested a lot! I’m going to throw my hat in for that one because I am biased and I know a lot of people that would contribute to that community including my wife and I.
Could probably combine ZeroWaste, SelfSufficiency, AntiConsumption etc. into a single community focused on sustainability, reusability, and so on.
Like a “Conscious Living” type sublem
I personally encourage you to post about permaculture in !greenspace@beehaw.org as it relates to gardening, or in !betterment@beehaw.org as it relates to community scaled projects in the meantime
Podcasts would be great, I love chatting about those.

Second a high strangeness for all the weird stuff out there.
Definitely need a podcasts community. Would volunteer as a moderator, as I already moderate the Reddit sub :P
