    Hi dad, I’m dad, u/engineer on Reddit. Last night my 4 year old daughter called me a “porcine wonder”. She learned that from a book.

    This community is the one that caused me to figure out how to subscribe to a community on Lemmy. Daddit was the only community I’ll truly miss when I deleted my Reddit account. Glad someone is trying to recreate it here.

    I’m hoping this can be similar to daddit. My only worry is in the name-- dadsplain just makes me think of ‘mansplain’ and the obvious negative connotations with that.

    Could be just me, though. Just worried it would end up leaning more towards lower quality content based on that. (I’m likely overthinking it)

      This could be a daddit meme community maybe… like maybe a takeoff on how Calvin’s dad explained things?

        Yeah, that would make sense. If we want to end up seperating out the memery and the more serious and support based content, we could just create /c/dads

    for some reason I was never part of the original subreddit, but I’m here for this!
