I'm so out of shape right now, it'll probably be whichever one I try to climb next.
💀
this is some real /r/suicidebywords material right here
You mean */c/suicidebywords
does that community exist here, or is this just wishful thinking?
Ha, my point is that we ought to distance ourselves from Reddit if we can. It doesn't seem to exist but anyone could make it. It probably wouldn't be a good fit for my instance, though, haha, so I shouldn't be the one.
that makes sense, and I tend to use
/c/when there is an actual Lemmy community (even if I'm referring to the more general idea meant by that community) precisely for that reason - but I'm also not sure we can entirely distance ourselves from Reddit, most of our users are from Reddit and are still active on Reddit, and Lemmy is a clone of Reddit. Maybe that's all the more reason for trying to show how we are distinct, but we also depend on our Reddit-ness as a community here, including in-jokes about subreddits and the general culture that existed on Reddit and which has partially migrated to places like Lemmy.And no worries about not starting the community on your instance, I think it makes more sense to create a community once there is interest rather than create another empty / dead stub of a community for the sake of completeness.
