MODERATORS
In the current context, seems like !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world is the way to go
For politics yeah. And I suppose if there is need for more, it could grow.🪴
I'm half thinking about creating AskUSA on lemmy.today just to centralize the US discussions somewhere 😅
Looking ahead, one difficulty might be that I don't think that existed on Reddit (or if it did, surely it wasn't well-known).
And the community sidebar is quite hidden on Lemmy especially from mobile apps. Creating a post presumes that you know exactly where you'll send it, without e.g. offering alternative solutions. I thought that Hexbear might be able to shunt posts made from one community over to another, but that probably took a modified codebase.
Oh, I see a !askmidwest@midwest.social.
Anyway if you see that there's enough demand for it (I haven't looked myself) then that sounds great!:-)
Open !nostupidquestions@lemmy.world and behold the 20 questions asked regarding US politics
Hehehe, yes ofc.:-)
But I meant that how much is temporary vs. a long-standing issue, and ofc much of that overlaps heavily with more general interest - e.g. "List of book and/or film titles dealing with resistance movements--organization, strategy, tactics, etc?" is most definitely not something dealing solely with USA politics.
But also I know that you tend to have your idea on the ball regarding such matters, so even more than the above thought my reply was also my way of saying that I'll take your word for it bc surely you know better than me:-).
