Really good video. And it introduced me to https://jointhefediverse.net/ which I didn't know before. Good site explaining the Fediverse and showing all the different softwares.
I didn't know it either and it's avoiding not enough/too much information nicely. For me the cherry on top would be a link to a kind of 'No stupid questions'-Community for interested or new users.
Afaik, the sites' content is managed on GitHub, so you could suggest a change there or do a pull request yourself.
After a very quick search I don't see a community for that purpose and the whole fediverse yet. The general fedi comms and the specific [email protected] and [email protected] could be linked there.
Maybe I'm overlooking something outside of Piefed and Lemmy?
[email protected] could probably be the go to as it has more content, and a nice pinned post (https://lemmy.ca/post/40668574)
We might want to create an instance agnostic community though
After watching the video (for example) and the join... an all-round comm would be a nice next step, then great communitys and resources like newtolemmy.
Piefed's flairs could come in handy to filter different kinds of questions.
I would even make it simpler: combine both "newto" communities to a single one. A single place where all new joiners can ask their questions, and where we have two pinned posts, one for each platform.
@[email protected] , what do you think?
I think that could work, I can lock the NewToPiefed and redirect it to NewToLemmy and rename the later
Alternatively I can keep both open and pin a thread in NewToPiefed saying that they can also post in the larger and more active NewToLemmy, and edit the sidebar of each to say that its ok. That might keep the friction to a minimum so that people are more likely to post wherever they end up.
I guess the questions is how much we thing people will get confused if they are redirected to "NewToLemmy" if they only hear from Piefed and never from Lemmy.
Also unfortunately the community name ( [email protected] ) can't be changed.
Anyway, it's not that urgent now, but I feel like maybe having a new "[email protected]" community without any platform mention could be the best (and could also be used for Mbin)
I understand that would be for those three platforms only and not the whole fediverse. For the latter I opened a discussion here https://piefed.social/post/891425
That could be for the whole Fediverse. I don't see why someone with questions about Pixelfed or Mastodon couldn't come to that community to ask them
Ah ok, I misunderstood as exclusively because of the two pinned posts you mentioned.
Yes, actually rereading the current pinned post (https://piefed.social/post/539670), we could probably go with a single post with a few sections
That is a great resource to have, I'm surprised I hadn't seen it before.
Very good site indeed
Nice video
The shirt???!??
Anyway looking forward to watching this on break.
