Hey all,

Just thought I’d share an update. I have added a few new communities and renamed the existing communities to have slightly more consistent naming throughout this instance. Icons are primarily from Wikimedia Commons (replacements welcome as long as there are no copyright issues).

Added:

- Rust: Web Development
- Rust: Game Development
- Rust: Embedded Systems

Renamed:

- Memes to Rust: Memes
- News to Rust: News
- Support to Rust: Support
- Meta to Rust: Meta

PS: The identifiers for the renamed communities remain the same. Open to any suggestions/thoughts on this change or otherwise.

Cheers!

    Ah, I missed this announcement. I’m a little unsure what should be going in Rust: News - I’ve been posting the TWiR updates into Rust Lang but perhaps this is the kind of thing you were thinking of when you made /c/news.

      I think TWiR can certainly belong in Rust: News along with any other relevant potentially recurring content (I’m thinking rustfmt, useful pkg update(s), news articles etc perhaps).

      I’ve noticed its kinda challenging finding communities for folks and it’s also kinda hard to make an actual announcement of sorts. I do, however, try to “pin” posts which I believe to be particularly important for the members to know. Honestly though, I too am figuring this out along with y’all :)

        I might just crosspost them into /c/news for now, seeing as rustlang has 11x the number of subscribers and someone else will probably post them anyway - at least if I properly use the crosspost button then Lemmy can de-dupe.
