you know the drill i'm sure, let's not waste time. many of you have already noticed we've created the first batch of our six new communities, which are:

  • AskBeehaw: a community which is exactly what it says it is, asking the Beehaw community stuff! this was our most popular community on the survey, and it's also inclusive of AMAs or stuff like out of the loop (which overlaps somewhat with Chat--we're fine with that).
  • Tabletop Gaming: after some delay, the tabletop and boardgaming communities have their own section! this community is, as noted, inclusive of boardgames and similar things to them--we've already got a mod in the section looking out for that side of the community, so that's nice :)
  • US News: we've converted !news into World News (see here for why in brief) to accommodate that popular demand, which means that US News now gets its own community! in conjunction with us the community there is being cultivated by @Powderhorn@beehaw.org, who has quite a lot of news experience and has a pretty clear vision of what that community will hopefully bring to the community table. we hope you'll like that vision.

other three communities should drop about next week, so be on the lookout for those.

as noted in the other announcement we're also taking mod applications. we're taking them for both new and old communities, so please feel free to apply over there if you're interested. thanks

Just a heads up, there is a test community on lemmy.ml if you need to test things out.

Thank you, I was not aware. Will use that community from now on :)
