I've been thinking, would it be worth creating a separate community for AI coding related articles and discussion? I know there is !Aii@programming.dev, however AI coding has a lot of overlap with !programming@programming.dev.

I know some people have expressed they aren't interesting in reading these articles, so a separate community would make it easier for them to filter them out. Rather than simply vote them down as they aren't interested in the topic.

Or is it better to have broad communities in Lemmy given the current number of users?

I've been tempted to make my own thread on this. There's too many AI related posts and I, personally, really don't want to see them. So for me it's really a question of whether to introduce a rule to disallow AI related posts (and move them to a dedicated community), or me having to stop participating in this community altogether.
