Was wondering if sub-lemmys were a thing. In other words: are there ways to make a community where you can draw direct, meaningful relations between existing communities?
There is no such thing as a “sub-lemmy,” do you mean a community that directly federates with similar communities, such that subscribing to one automatically puts you into a feed of all related communities?
OP means hierarchical communities with sub-communities with sub-sub-communities, like how comments work.
For example you could have a community for your country which would have sub-communities for each state or province which would sub-communities for each city which could have sub-communities for each neighborhood or subdivision.
I’m not sure what the benefit would be though.
I imagine someone will figure out a way to get an aggregated feed of associated communities
On lemmy, it’s just a c/ or community. Not a sublemmy.
But, not really, no
sublemmy is cute, trips off the tongue, and can be shortened to sub. community is more awkward to say, and shortens to comm or commie. c/ (cee-slash?) is just awful. until someone suggests something better (lemmons? lemmunities?) i’m going to keep using sublemmy
edit 2023-07-17. i have settled on lemmysphere. it is a pun, and i like it
