Comment on Coalition tells Cop28 it will back tripling of nuclear energy if Peter Dutton becomes prime minister
WaterWaiver@aussie.zone 1 year agoSeveral thoughts merged into one (pick any choose bits, not all or nothing):
- c/Auslocal <- replacing /c/Syd /c/Melb etc. General discussion
- c/AusGoodnews
- c/Australia <- people posting politics will probably default to the general “Australia” regardless of what rules you try to put in. If you roll with that and intentionally keep it as a honeypot then it might be tolerable? ie don’t try and move the politics out of /c/Australia, instead move everything else out into c/AusGoodnews.

Thanks for sharing these ideas.
For the first idea: While it may increase exposure and activity, this might not be what people are after, likely only being interested in their own local community’s news. But on the other hand exposure is good if you want to ask a question about something to do with Australia in general but not get lost amongst politics and news.
I like your thinking with the second two and they’re definitely actionable. The content segregation is always going to be an uphill battle because not everyone will read the sidebar - especially since it doesn’t get shown when creating a post making it almost useless. Perhaps we could repurpose the !news@aussie.zone community (currently called “Australian News”) for the purpose of interesting news.

What’s the advantage of repurposing a community vs creating a new name?

It’s less hassle and we get to retain the subscribers, however, a proper launch might create some more interest
