It’s a given that people can post to this sub to get advice from mechanics - or just those with some know how everyone is welcome!

But what else would you maybe like to see?

Just the Tip… I swear!” - various tips from a mechanic, shade tree or otherwise? Anyone can post and share our various little hacks for pickle-oneous predicaments?

Show me what you got!” - show us your engines, tires or anything mechanic related?

Have a look at these Snap-ples!” - How’s my tool set holding up? Advice regarding tools, even if it’s just to confirm that they’re indeed BADASS.

Junk-hard?” - do you live in what’s been called a junk yard? Would you like to share your hoard where it’s appreciated, seek advice about repair, sale (maybe?) Or even just find out what it is?!?! I feel like this fits in the scope of mechanic advice?

I’ve run out of names for ideas. Thoughts?

Good idea/bad name? Bad idea/good name?

Should we just stick to specifically answering questions regarding issues people ask about and leave your feed alone?

Inquiring minds would like to know! I’d just like to see this place grow so forgive if I’m doing too much, or not enough (if not enough, help! I’ve no idea what I’m doing!)

      Since you and mvirtz have both asked I will (hopefully) flood this place with similar stuff! (If I remember please inbox me if I don’t I won’t mind I promise!)

    I like the idea of Just the Tip - a lot of us drive around without or very rarely having an opportunity to learn something new or reevaluate what we already “know” - like stuff that everybody should know about taking care of their car, but nobody knows

      Thanks! I learn something new every single day about this stuff myself and would love to share, as I’m sure others will as will. In time we’ll have plenty on here!

    Can things posted here actually be found in search engines like Google?

      Referring to the sales aspect? Heck, I have time and love this sort of thing so if you wanted it to, maybe? (Regarding the sales aspect right?)

        Regarding the ability of random persons to find valuable help information that will be collected here over time.

          Ah, I’m too new to Lemmy to know that tbh. Some sites prefer not to register with search engines I’m not sure if Lemmy is on that boat or not but you bring up a good topic! Would be nice to ensure that our information is shared on search engines for those that need help!

          Someone preferred the privacy but I am not sure why we would need it here?

            There is no privacy on Lemmy, essentially by definition. Everything gets shared to whoever wants it. I can only hope that the content can actually be found.
