Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!

Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!

Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.

So, how’s it going?

    @Dave @sortofblue I’m personally not a fan of splitting small communities.

    If mixing content types makes moderation too hard, then I would say that the above post belongs in the “politics” section of a newspaper so yeah.

      The idea is that politics is something that there are enough people interested in it to support it’s own community, and enough people who do not want to see it to justify separating it.

      Lemmy does not have tags for filtering like reddit, so people who want to filter out politics basically have no choice. In the early days, there were many people vocal about not wanting to see politics, hence why it got it’s own community.

        If it’s too complicated I’m not bothered, I just found it quite nice to be able to avoid it before the election campaigning kicked into high gear.

        I’m personally for separating politics into it’s own community, but am I the only one that uses “Local” to see all the lemmy.nz communities posts?

        I switch between local, subscribed and all depending on what I want to see.

          You’re not the only one, but lemmy.nz has 750 users, while [email protected] has 1,300 subscribers. There are many users on other instances participating here that can’t see our local feed.

          That’s what I’ve been doing as well. Is that not a good idea?

            No nothing wrong. I just didn’t consider others might not have their main account on lemmy.nz, so wouldnt get the same local view
