Will add to the master list when I can πŸ™

Would the β€œprint” prefix make discoverability harder? Especially considering this is already a lit-centered instance

Not totally sure, the subreddit was called r/printsf so I just took the same name.

[–] GammaGames@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

Makes sense!

I mean !sf@literature.cafe might work since it is a book and writing focused instance but its your call

[–] Arthur 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Is there an easy way to do a name change on a community? sf is cooler for sure.

[–] gabe 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Unfortunately the only way is if I purge the community and you make an entirely new one.

If you'd be down with that, scifi or sf might be good dunno tho

Maybe we just rip the bandaid off while it is so new and go !sf@literature.cafe. Sorry for the extra work!

[–] gabe 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It's all good! Just make the new one, and I can just delete the old one

[–] Arthur 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Turns out communities need to at least 3 characters. Since that is the case, I still think it makes sense to align with the subreddit name but I actually have no idea what I'm doing, just trying to help out since I want to see a speculative fiction community on here. Opening to changing the name, you seem to have much more mod/admin experience than me!

Nah just leave it the way it is, it's fine
