Nice, I was really hoping someone would start a lunarpunk community!
Lunarpunk
Lunarpunk is a subgenre of solarpunk with a darker aesthetic. It portrays the nightlife, spirituality, and more introspective side of solarpunk utopias. It can be defined as "Witchy Solarpunk." Aesthetically, lunarpunk usually is presented with pinks, purples, blues, black, and silver with an almost omnipresence of bioluminescent plants and especially mushrooms

Thanks, I figured it belongs here and now is a good time as we have so many new members.
Will follow along, I am curious. 🌕
Yeah I hope people contribute here and we can all learn some things as the community develops.
Huh, and here I was thinking it was written as 'lunapunk'!
I guess that would make sense too as “luna” and “lunar” both have to do with the moon
I think "luna" sounds a bit more dreamy, which is what I associate with the lunarpunk vibe, maybe that's why. But compare with solarpunk (and not solapunk or something), it makes sense!
Awesome to see someone make a Lunarpunk community! I personally have always seen it in relation to the night-life and night-time pagan markets, where a lot of purples, blues, silvers are all seen with the moon and stars above. The way I could see it being more seen is as a place that could be set up, such as people bringing in the means to block off a street during the night-time so that a large street can be turned into a night-time marketplace, people bringing in tables and stalls. Low light-pollution, using what is available as necessary, and going when not needed. When not in a city, then it is setting up a space in the outdoors of course. The use of low-energy tech and low-light tech to make a night-life community.
I love the name and the idea. I'm def going to try to be a bigger participant of this sub!
Glad to have you here and hear you enjoy it. I haven’t been posting super consistently as of late but I welcome anyone to participate and help shape the community into what they like
