I am looking for someone to help the Science Fiction community flourish. To potentially help refine the community description and our getting started post. Even if you don’t want to moderate I would accept any ideas people have.

It will probably be a thankless job with no benefit at all other than seeing this community grow. As of now there is very little moderation actually needed.

Let me know if you are interested either in this post or in a direct message.

    Something to put a spotlight on books would be cool. Back on reddit, printSF existed solely for that because the main science fiction hub was dominated by television and film. It would be nice if there was a place for both in one community here rather than splitting them. In the vein of pinned discussions maybe a “What are you reading? What are you looking for? What do you recommend?” type thread could get some book discussions going.

      I like these ideas. I might make monthly pinned posts about what people are reading.

      As for everything existing in one community I am mostly in favor of that up until the point that the amount of traffic actually gets excessive. We aren’t anywhere near the levels I’d find overwhelming and needing to be split up. Only then do I think it makes sense to split communities. However, other people tend to disagree evident by the amount of communities that got created as soon as Lemmy became more popular. People are trying to jumpstart 10 communities that are all niche subsets of broader communities and I just don’t think that is going to work well.
