  • Sorry I’m late to respond, been under the weather as well as visiting family recently. I’m one of the mods of [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected].

    I do agree with that strategy, but I don’t think there’s any going back at this point. When the migration happened, people all over Lemmy created the same communities and some took off, some didn’t. Most of our culinary communities weren’t created during this time, but later when we found a topic we wanted to have a community around. I think also, most of our communities are generic enough to where the only next step in merging would be to just stick everything under [email protected] (I see that community has been abandoned as well).

    what good is fragmenting a fledging community and losing the visibility gained from posting in one area with high traffic?

    I don’t understand your logic on this. You don’t have to pick one community and ignore the others. Be part of them all and contribute where it fits. No one is saying you have to stop posting in one because it fits the other more. Post in all of them where it’s relevant. And if some communities die off, then that’s fine. It’s all an experiment in my eyes.

    Someone wining that they get no traffic doesn’t really incentive me to post in their communities.

    You said no offense meant, and then decided to be negative in your last sentence, but to respond to this; No one is whining, we are just doing what we can to be inclusive. We are just trying to help eachother out and hopefully we all grow. I don’t know what your other post about it being political was about and I don’t know what you’re finding so negative about us sharing eachothers communities. None of us are complaining. We’re just trying to spread awareness of other communities and hope that everyone takes part and Lemmy can grow to be a fun place to be.

    Looks like the sidebar has been updated with some of the other communities. All us mods of culinary communities have been discussing together how we can all grow and definitely the main thing is just posting in relevant communities. I think we’re all pretty lax on what gets posted as long as it’s just not relevant at all. We understand Lemmy is growing and hardcore gatekeeping is definitely not needed, especially currently. Hope to see your posts.



  • Yes exactly! I really didn’t like him at first but the more they interact, he’s just part of the team IMO. You can really see the friendship grow and it’s so endearing.

    Like he’d get mad at you for eating shit but cook you a bomb version to prove it.

    This I definitely relate with. I love to feed people and watch them experience good taste and I will definitely lose my mind when I find out your bad cooking habits. I visited with some family over last weekend and my step-aunt said she doesn’t use salt and I about lost my shit! But it really makes me want to show you what you’re missing out on.
