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!

    Isn’t it a bit early? I feel like we should have enough traffic to justify splitting the community like that. Although maybe I’m just not used to this whole fediverse/instance thing.

      Agreed on the “bit early” part, disagree on the “split”. As for traffic, maybe it comes, maybe it doesn’t; can’t really make a call on that yet. I feel it’s better to do this now instead of when there’s 1000+ members here (if ever).

      I wouldn’t necessarily label it as a “split” instead more like an organizational restructuring to keep things slightly more focused and on-topic. One can choose to “subscribe” to Rust Lang + Rust: Support but not to the other ones if they aren’t interested for example.
