Suggestion: sticky a post explaining the differences between the !StarTrek, !DaystromInstitute and !Risa communities (kbin.social)

I've noticed a number of memes already popping on this community. One thing I always valued about Reddit was that the larger communities were often able to clearly delineate which spaces were for different types of content, and I'd hate for that to get lost in the move to the Fediverse.

Could I suggest that, while people are still getting used to the new home of the communities that used to exist in the Star Trek subreddits, it might be helpful to distinguish between them with a simple sticky post on each community?

e.g. Something along the lines of:

!StarTrek is for Star Trek news and discussion.

!DaystromInstitute is for serious, in-depth discussion.

!Risa is for memes and shitposts.

Please help the mods by picking the right community to post in, and live long and prosper!

This would also have the benefit of continually publicising the existence of the smaller DaystromInstitute and Risa communities.

Risa is necessary over on reddit because the community is big/busy enough that memes can overwhelm the discussion. Until it gets that populous over here I don't think it's necessary to force the separation (but keep !DaystromInstitute clean).

Originally we didn't have /c/risa set up for that very reason, but The People Demanded It.
