If there is a growing community that should be in this list, please comment it below.
If you think a category should / should not be in this list, let us know. There are so many amazing communities, but we also don't want this list to feel overwhelming.
/c/Guelph exists. We try to keep it active. It's really just me and @[email protected] posting articles from local news....
Thank you! The community looks good :)
I've gone through and updated the post/sidebar + added the community
There's a fairly inactive community for Saskatoon: [email protected]
Hopefully putting it here gets it more visibility.
Edit: Since we don't really hate each other, even if we pretend to, I'll also point out Regina's community: [email protected]
Thanks! Both have been added to the post & sidebar
There are two communities I would really like to see some traffic driven to:
[email protected] - Celebrating Canadian music
[email protected] - Celebrating Canadian games, gamedevs and studios
I think these would be an easy add to the Canadian Social / Culture section.
Thanks! I've added them to the post and sidebar
MapleMusic has a recent post on [email protected], but [email protected] could doesn't so it could be good to post about it. Thanks for sharing them!
The owner of those two communities deleted his account. They passed moderation of maplemusic to me and one other person, but givergaming got deleted with their account.
I've created [email protected] to refill the void. Out of the two, a canadian gaming community was the one I was hoping to take off the most since I'm more of a gamer person than a music person. I've got some plans for fostering a community on there. I'll post about it in !communitypromo once I've got it set up a bit nicer, it is sorta barebones at the moment.
Strange how I didn't want to mod any communities on here but ended up moderating 3!
Oh there's also /c/QuebecLibre which is NOT about Québec separatism, but about free (as in LIBRE) open source software in Québec.
Added as well!
I added both to the 🍁 Social / Culture section, and I listed this one as Logiciels libres au Québec
There's a French Canadian community as well:
Thanks! Added it to the social/culture section
Man Vancouver community is a wasteland...
We need some more activity there for sure. There are a lot of users here from Vancouver, we just don't seem to use the community much
Once one person starts posting regularly and others see it, eventually more people will join in!
I went ahead and made a Windsor community! Windsor is the city I was born in and I grew up in Essex County, so I felt a little left out not being on this list. While the community is named for Windsor, I figured it'd make sense to welcome content from all over Essex county instead of making community bloat for every town in the county.
/c/Windsor or [email protected]
Thank you for making that, and sorry for the delay. It's been updated in the post and sidebar now!
There is also /c/TorontoCycling
Thanks! I added it under Toronto in the Cities / Local Communities section
Hello!
I have made the 2 political communities: Animal Protection Party of Canada and BC Greens for environmentalists and vegans to discuss important issues on the fediverse as I would like to encourage more growth on community owned social media ran by everyday canadians and to avoid the conflicts that may arise with corporate owned social media namely Facebook and Twitter interfering with campaigning that goes against their commercial interests.
May I request that !appc and !bcgreens be listed under !ndp under the politics section.
Please and Thank you <3
For sure! Sorry for the delay, I wanted to sit down at a computer to make the changes properly and check over all the links, and then kept procrastinating.
They should be updated now, thank you for making those!
I have recently created two first nations based communities on Lemmy.ca as requested from the 2023 instance census. Please add [email protected] & [email protected] to the community list.
Thank you! I've renamed the last section and added the new communities there
I also made !inuit and !indigenous communities. Gotta cover everyone :)
Sorry for the delay, it's been updated!
May I request that [email protected] be added under the politics section?
Thanks! Both should be updated now :)
[email protected] (BC) is not growing much but could be added?
Thanks! It has been added to both post and sidebar
!oceanside_[email protected] East Vancouver Island - Nanoose Bay to Fanny Bay
Another good town on Lemmy!
thank you, it should be added now :)
Be sure to add [email protected]
Thank you! It has been added to the post and the sidebar
Awesome good to have more spaces on Lemmy <3
Cheers!
Would love if you could add [email protected], and perhaps combine it with canadapolitics under a "politics" category?
Thank you, updated!
