YSK that there is a dedicated general community on lemmy.world where you can posts your general thoughts on lemmy, reddit etc

Why YSK: I have seeing been a lot of general posts on various communities where they don't belong. There is a perfect community for this.

Posts like:

"Feels like I am spending less time on social media after joining lemmy" on ShowerThoughts community. This is a not a shower thought. This is more of a general thought which belongs in !general@lemmy.world

"This is not a shitpost but I am loving lemmy" on lemmyshitpost community. This is not even a thought sharing community yet it has been posted and been upvoted to frontpage. This belongs in !general@lemmy.world too.

I hope the moderators of all communities tighten up a bit and help posts go where they belong.

Especially shower thoughts. I'd love to follow that thing again, but the stream of "oooh Lemmy is so nice" posts made me unsub. If you like Lemmy so much, why don't you learn where to post. Communities have their purposes.

Some instances have their own similar equivalents, which might be helpful if you're on an instance focusing on a particular niche

E.g.

  • !main@sh.itjust.works
  • !main@sopuli.xyz
  • !chat@lemmy.one

Always a good idea to check the sidebar description to make sure the post is being made in the right place
