As an example, just came across this post

What type of pen do you prefer to use?

Alternatively, you can post in other communities. Maybe in a common format?

What is your favourite old song and why?

What is your favourite copper kettle?

Some possible community types

• [email protected] for discussion generating questions
• [email protected] for similar
• [email protected] or [email protected] for product recommendations

etc.

Then finally you can compile a list of posts somewhere so you can have it all in one place

You could totally create a new community too, but I think it will take more work to get something like this off the ground. The moderators might be posting a lot of the content early on

Wow this would look really cool on a t-shirt / hoodie

[email protected]

There is a pinned post with the team specific communities

While I usually advise to try and make larger communities instead of fragmenting, I think this is a fun subtle difference to split them up with lol

You could coordinate with the other mods to link to each other

But I didn't know Mbin could federate with Lemmy. But I'm sure Lemmy/Mbin probably won't federate with Pixelfed, or Peertube.

I think all of these are "don't federate well currently ", but it's a goal to improve federation over time

For example, Lemmy is federating with Mastodon better than when I first joined. It's also possible to subscribe to peertube channels from Lemmy, but it's a bit buggy.

Thanks! That's much easier

Edit: for a better method, see this comment below

You would need to navigate to that instance on desktop

For example, as others have said:

• https://lemmy.ca/communities
• https://lemmy.world/communities
• https://mander.xyz/communities
• https://slrpnk.net/communities

You can't see it from your instance because not every community will be pulled. A community only starts federating to your instance after someone on your instance subscribes to it

Memories are weird. Combinations of random circumstances might cause you to remember the last time when you are the item, and how it made you feel afterwards

An indirect form of this should work

• When you need more X, you might feel certain symptoms. Eating more of X will make you feel better
• Over time you associate the two things together, even if you don't understand the science of why

Yup, cats can't taste sweetness for that reason, while birds don't have receptors for spice and can eat chillies easily.

That's just the taste buds themselves, additionally:

• A large part of our taste response is tied to smell. This is why food tastes different when sick. It's also hard to try yourself because you can "smell" through the back of your throat too
• the air around us will affect taste perception, which is why some foods taste better or worse on a plane
• genetic factors exist, such as how some people taste cilantro/parsley as soapy

A slight modification, it could be implemented as a suggested action where the admins (or mods) can ask for a second opinion when they feel it's appropriate.

That way urgent actions can happen right away, and potentially controversial actions can be discussed. It should solve the problem without forcing a specific workflow
