I created WhereToPost. The goal is to help find the right community for specific content. - Lemmy.World

I created [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] [https://lemmy.world/c/wheretopost] because I still find Lemmy a bit confusing. Since there are so many communities across so many servers, I never know where I should be posting certain topics. The goal of this community is to help people find the right community to post specific content and, by doing that, hopefully, decrease posting friction and increase content. Please subscribe and help people find the right community! I know it may not seem like much, but I have had so many instances of content that I wanted to post but ended up just saying"fuck it" because I didn’t know where I should be posting it. This friction multiplied by hundreds of people does make the difference!

[email protected] ?

It has a pinned post with a list of active communities, and “where to post” posts are welcome

The goal of the community seems slightly different. And also the community name itself.
It allows the same type of posts, but no harm if we want to build a few communities for people to use :)
Unfortunately the name makes it seem like it’s just for ads, and I am honestly surprised that you, who I think has the view of “don’t make communities with the same purpose on multiple servers, consolidate unless there is a big moderation/content philosophy difference” are cool with [email protected] and [email protected] both existing. Is there a moderation/content philosophy difference I am not aware of?
