Also for giving/asking advice on any area for positive feedback or support. Anyone is encouraged to submit their favorite resources and advice/tips on mental, physical, social health and even financial and career advice and resources.
i hope this is heavily moderated
this is an area where abuse is all too common for humans in a very vulnerable situation
I will be sure to remove any trolls or negative comments. There is a rule about positivity only when replying and content/trigger warnings required when necessary. If anyone would like to be a mod let me know.
that sounds good. i just mean that people can get into trouble when seeking “help” from bad sources or unscrupulous people
Well. I hope this community is met with good intentions. I wanted to make a self-improvement community, but the one that exists is void, and their intentions were only for it to be people posting with their experiences and asking for advice. I wanted to make a decide to be better community as I used to use on reddit, there was one but also dead as a community, and more for experiences and advice. This community was originally an idea for resources only, but seeing the other communities unused, I decided to expand to advice. Mental health community exists but they don’t have anyone posting resources, maybe there is a pinned post but I want to open this community to both resources AND support. And sharing how you overcame your struggle. And then I expanded it to all aspects of self improvement. Anyone can post diet/nutrition, physical health, financial tips articles, career etc resources and advice or ask for it. However any written advice that is not a link to another source, should be met with caution and critical thinking, in hopes of good faith.
But you got to be quick about it or it’s pointless. I’ve also been attacked and the reports never did anything
I am hoping to have at least another mod. I can’t always be on Lemmy, when I am at work. I want something that Lemmy doesn’t have yet. There isn’t one dedicated to resources. I just add the other option so it is all in one place. I plan on tagging related communities in the description. I will have to see if the community gains more following and see what is needed.
