I’d be keen to set up or support a Wellington community on the NZ lemmy :)

    I don’t want to step on @Dave@lemmy.nz 's toes as he seems to have given this instance much thought.

    I did spin an instance up that I am now thinking to push more in an environmental / wildlife space eg New Zealand Wildlife

    I had also created Trees - I think that may need either lots of moderation or none

      I actually just stole someone else’s thoughts :P

      I’m happy to point Trees type traffic to your community if you’re wanting to build that up. However, I’m not sure that /r/trees was quite the same as an NZ medicinal cannabis one. @cnnrduncan@beehaw.org am I right that you’re thinking of something a bit different to an /r/trees style sub?

        Hi @Dave@lemmy.nz

        As this is a completely new new community to build then why not build c/trees as a medical or life affirming space.

        I’m not a user of /trees for rec. or medical use but do see it’s use as beneficial for many reasons (and shrooms)

          If you’re willing to drive this then I’m happy to support you in building your community. We can avoid a community like that here and point people to your community.

          I’m wondering if we need some sort of wiki like reddit has, to help people find what they are looking for. Perhaps a pinned post to start with, but I feel eventually we will need a wiki (I don’t think Lemmy has this, but there are plenty of options we can host to fulfill this need - with the caveat being I don’t know of an option that will let you use your fediverse account to edit).
