Was wondering if sub-lemmys were a thing. In other words: are there ways to make a community where you can draw direct, meaningful relations between existing communities?

    Personally, I don’t understand the question. I’m assuming you’re starting a parallel to subreddits, but I don’t see how they had direct, meaningful relations between them?

      Hopefully the new title makes more sense, but basically I want to create hierarchical communities so that they all share a common set of rules and policies but follow more rigid organizational structure - nodes display a grid of further nodes or allow search within the whole subtree. Leafs function essentially like communities do now and display user posts for whatever the structure is.

      Thought this might be a more efficient structuring of the information we’d all like to share with each other and enjoy consuming : )

        Sound a bit like a instance, but then in the form of a community. Sounds interesting.

        It doesn’t yet exist, but if you want it to be made someday, you can create a feature request on the github. Though I doubt they will work on it anytime soon, as they’re currently pretty overloaded with issues.

        Example:

        ArtificialIntelligenceEra, lists it’s child nodes:

        • Chat Models –chatgpt –binggpt –google’s –etc
        • Art Models – Stable Diffusion – Dalle – etc
        • Utility Models
        • [LEAFS] (mostly misc, unknown AI things that dont fit anything in existence)

      sublemmy is cute, trips off the tongue, and can be shortened to sub. community is more awkward to say, and shortens to comm or commie. c/ (cee-slash?) is just awful. until someone suggests something better (lemmons? lemmunities?) i’m going to keep using sublemmy


      edit 2023-07-17. i have settled on lemmysphere. it is a pun, and i like it
