[Meta] Should we create a !reddit@lemmy.zip community, dedicated to Reddit?

Basically, title.

There are a lot of news recently following the Reddit IPO, and I guess it might be interesting to have a dedicated Reddit community (also, having it elsewhere than LW would be nice to reduce the current hypercentralization), and allow people who aren't interested to just block it and still enjoy !technology@lemmy.zip

What do you think? Just asking the community first as I know sometimes people are concerned about community fragmentation

PS: thank you @BrikoX@lemmy.zip for your work animating the lemmy.zip communities!

  • I don’t feel like it’s necessary. The technology community is more than enough for Reddit and everything also related to technology, making a separate comm just for Reddit feels a little excessive. As for blocking, most apps have keyword blocks so people can already view the community without the Reddit-related stuff.

    • Thank you for your comment.

      I was asking because everytime I post an article about Reddit, even in the dedicated communities, there are people who comment "who cares about Reddit?"

      I assume this would only be even more the case in the !technology community.

      On the other hand, I am myself not interested in all topics handled in !technology, but I like to keep an eye on what happens on Reddit, so that would be a way to only have that content.

      Anyway, let's see what other people have to say on the matter
