We're brand new, but I hope you'll have a word or two. Looking for mods who can write and love discussing a variety of topics!

That's gonna be political in a matter of seconds lmao

[-] HeartyBeast@kbin.social 5 points 9 months ago

It doesn’t have to be apolitical- it’s how about the discussion is conducted and not immediately thinking a person who disagrees with you is evil incarnate. Very tough to moderate though, and requires participants to really be behind the ethos, I guess

[-] AceTKen@lemmy.ca 2 points 9 months ago

Yeah, it may be hard to set the tone at first without alienating anyone. I'm hoping that I'm up for it.

[-] AceTKen@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 months ago

I'm okay with political and encourage it as long as people have sound reasoning to back it up.

I've changed my mind on many political topics after a good discussion!

[-] FQQD@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 2 points 9 months ago

Fair enough. But not really for me, I just wanna look at stupid memes lol

[-] Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 9 months ago

Seems nice!

Would you like to share links in the sidebar with !casualconversation@lemmy.world ?

[-] AceTKen@lemmy.ca 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

Absolutely! It's the first community I've run on Lemmy, so I'll definitely have to pull from how you post it if that's okay.

Maybe something like: "If you like Casual Conversation instead of Competitive Ranked conversation, try !casualconversation@lemmy.world !"

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !casualconversation@lemmy.world

[-] HeartyBeast@kbin.social 2 points 9 months ago

Subscribed.

[-] gapbetweenus@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago

Cool idea, I think you need to start some discussion yourself first so it's not that empty.

[-] AceTKen@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 months ago

Was going to start doing a few topics today, actually. Slept like garbage though so they may be... dumber than standard.

A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World's rules. You can click the link but we've reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn't a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.

1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.

A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn't rulebreaking and we can't be supportive to them then we probably shouldn't engage.

B. No illegal content.

C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.

D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.

E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
