Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

I think deleting communities is a bad idea. We lose the history then, so I'm not sure what action we would take. Out of the communities that get used, I feel like they are all justified:

C/newzealand is our main community.

NZ Politics is deliberately split off because some people want to avoid politics. It also seems active enough to support being it's own community.

C/rocketlab is topic specific and of interest to those outside NZ, it has a different audience than our other communities, so at the time we held a poll and there was support for adding this as it's own community.

The others don't get used very much. People tend to use c/nz so I feel like your suggestion to keep things together is already being done because people don't tend to use the regional communities.

I'm keen to hear from others if there is support for doing something (I'm still not sure what the action would be).
