[META] Could people here just FOLLOW THE RULES?

I'd like to add [email protected] to that list. it's more neutrally gendered and that's a good thing IMO.
more neutrally gendered and that’s a good thing IMO.
Why?

Why?
Because being inclusive is better than exclusive, especially considering the typical sizes of these communities.

Except wrt you. Ew, gross. -
Here's what the sidebar says: "A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought-provoking questions."
And yet we keep seeing is:
- Is it possible (or difficult) to migrate an entire forum from vanilla to a lemmy instance?
- Is Tom Clancy's daughter trans, or is it a character of his?
- Does anyone have a link for ace attorney 1 full game playthrough?
- Does anyone have suggestions for buying a webcam?
TBC? Most posters do indeed bring it with highly thought-provoking Q's, and I love that. But matey, there must be better places for these Q's, yeah?
[email protected] is a good alternative.

Cool!
In which case, how should we organise such things across the FV..?Chill out about them I guess.

Yeah, so what? This is the natural evolution of online communities. It's a good thing. When the user base is small, we should have a few, non-specific channels/forums/communities/whatevers so that everybody is in the same place to talk to each other. Metaphorically, it's like sustaining a nuclear reaction: The fissile material has to be in close enough proximity so that the radiation (posts and comments) can strike more fissile material (other users) to keep the chain reaction going. In the past, I've criticized the urge to immediately atomize Lemmy into thousands of highly-specific communities, and indeed, most of them have withered away.
Once a particular topic starts to dominate a community, once it's reached critical mass, then it's time to fork it off into its own community. I don't think that's happened to [email protected] yet.
