I just want a sidebar to mess around with first before I make the changes to my actual community’s sidebar.

minus-square@PriorProjectlink2•edit-211 months agoIf you post, the post will be public. If you squatted a community and didn’t do anything with it I imagine you’d be at risk of: Having someone else petition the admins to actually do something with it. Having it removed in spam cleanups. What would be the purpose of a community that users can’t post to and mods don’t post to?

minus-square@PriorProjectlink1•11 months agoFair enough. I’d recommend to fill out the sidebar with an explanation like this so folks understand what it’s about. Good luck.
