update: we're compiling them now, new suggestions have about 4 hours to come in before i call it and lock the thread. thank you for all of your suggestions

following the defederations and given the inconvenience, it's time for a new round of community solicitations so we can add possible ones to our survey!

to make this easier for us, please follow a few groundrules here:

make your suggestions top level comments. do not reply to people with suggestions! they'll probably get lost and i won't get paged if you make them.
try not to make your suggestions super specific, because we probably won't do super specific ones
try not to duplicate a suggestion once it's already made (i know lemmy's display isn't great for this). while imperfect, if you like an idea please upvote it instead.
this is not intended to be a general discussion thread, so please try to keep that to a minimum. i will prune comments as needed if i think they're cramping the utility of this thread

additionally, we've already been suggested the following and those will be on the survey. i will prune any suggestion which is a duplicate of/is covered by one of these:

anime and manga
world news
tabletop gaming
vegan/vegetarian
education
parenting
camping
fitness

and for responsibility reasons we can't really offer mental-health related communities past !neurodivergence@beehaw.org, so please don't suggest those. thanks folks!

I personally would like a game development subr- community, but it might be too niche to bother with. I know we have a c/programming, but that's for people a lot smarter than me, my game dev process is more of a "alls i have is a hammer and therefore everything is nails" type of deal and I personally find that most of the self taught indie devs are kinda on my wavelength.
