I have a few community ideas that I’d like to gauge interest in. Don’t necessarily want to flood the instance with empty communities. Feel free to pose your own ideas as well. See comments!
Would there be any interest in an astronomy or stargazing community? It’d be a place to share observing logs, astrophotos, and general space-related images and news, especially if relevant or interesting to amateur astronomers.
Absurd Patents - a community showcasing patents that should have been too obvious, too broad, too stupid or too ridiculous to be granted or enforced.
NSFW
I want a /c/toddlercon. Most toddlercon (and babycon) would be allowed, with mandatory tags for more extreme stuff or AI.
This exists now: !toddlercon@burggit.moeMore real porn communities would be nice, specifically scat (should also have a hentai community tbh) & gay porn (mostly twinks).
LGBT community (/c/lgbt)
A sfw (with nsfw memes allowed but not porn) community for its namesake.
EDIT: I have made it! See: !lgbt@burggit.moe. Ping for responding user: @AWildLoliAppeared@burggit.moe
How is this NOT already a thing?
Lol I’m quite surprised there are actually queer people here. I assumed since this is a, well, free speech Lemmy instance, this place would be filled with anti-LGBT people. So I minimized talking about it here.
Like rinkan mentioned, the admins have been pretty outspoken about how being free speech oriented is not the same as being a bunch of assholes. For example, from this featured post:
What Burggit is not We are not another Kiwifarms, Gab or Voat!
While we’re fine with people posting offensive speech and imagery, we won’t allow them to use their right to “Free Speech” as a weapon against the overall health of the platform. Threatening, Berating, Dogpiling, Doxxing and otherwise being complete and total assholes to other users will not be tolerated.
I was going to write up a response, but you touched on everything I wanted to say. Good jorb. :3
