Please comment with what communities you would like to be added here.
For mod creation I need both the url style name (experienced_devs
) and the Display name (Experienced Devs
)
Saw that a python community is still missing. Currently getting more and more into it, so would be nice.
Done! If you post in it I’ll make you a mod if you want! :)
I’d be happy to help mod c/python.
Request for a general (Unix) shell community! (
shell
andShell Scripting
) I made !shell@itjust.works, so you can tell my intentions if you read the sidebar there. I’m having issues making posts there, though, and this instance makes more sense. I’m a current mod at /r/bash, and intend to reach out to the mods of sister subreddits if they want to join.I originally was intending on all shell languages, but since we now have !powershell, I’d be fine with restricting it to Unix shells. I don’t know pwsh or batch well anyway, I’d have to ask pwshguy to help!
Why not lang-specific communities like !bash?
- Scripting fundamentals translate very well between languages, not to mention tools like awk, jq, and others are common to many.
- In practice, there was a far more overlap than not within the different subreddits; both users and content.
If you disagree with combining sister languages as a policy, that’s fine! I’d request both
bash
/The Bourne-Again Shell
andzsh
/The Z Shell
.Done! https://programming.dev/c/shell
Post there and I’ll make you mod!
Thank you!
Would love a PowerShell or at least general scripting/automation community
relevant username lol. What do you think would be better? General scripting or specific?
My preference would be specific to prevent one language dominating all the discussions
is
powershell
fine by you?That would be great. Thanks!
I’d be happy to moderate it for you too.
Done! https://programming.dev/c/powershell
Apparently the software is weird, so you have to comment or post before I can make you mod.
Thanks! I created a welcome post. Appreciate your help.
modded! good luck!
Hey! Can we have one for Go as well?
there’s a three character limit on community names for some reason. how about
go_lang
? orgolang
? andGo
for the community name?The one on reddit uses r/golang so let’s stick with that
Made the community over at https://programming.dev/c/golang If you want to be a mod for it make a post and ill mod you from it
(I set the display name to also be Golang since its also limited to minimum 3 characters for some reason, if it should be something else its easily changeable)
A general webdev one would be nice, I think we could match the Reddit naming convention of using just
Webdev
andwebdev
I had this same thought. I wanted to post the Safari 17 article but I wasn’t sure if it belonged in /c/Programming really. A web dev community would make more sense maybe.
created. if you post in there I’ll make you and @_pete_@programming.dev mods. https://programming.dev/c/webdev
Created! Post in there and I’ll make you and @erlingur@programming.dev mods https://programming.dev/c/webdev
Thanks! Posted :)
Can we have something like nostupidquestions but for computer science/software engineering topics? Would be very helpful for beginners and could probably be a pool where people can ask stupid questions without fear.
Created at https://programming.dev/c/no_stupid_questions! If you make a post in the community I’ll make you a mod if you want
Can we have a general cloud engineering community? Something encompassing the Azure/AWS/GCS and others for news, Instructables etc. /c/loud would be perfect :)
As with
/c/sharp
making a cool URL is one thing but this would be referred to inline as!loud
Haha ok, created, but not sure it actually works as well as it does on reddit lol. cuz you reference it with !loud now. anyway if you make a post in there I’ll make you mod!
Wonderful! thanks :)
What about a community for programming teachers? I work as a computer teacher in what in Spain is called Professional Studies. We teach IT in general (hardware, databases, programming, networking…), and maybe it could be nice to have a community where teachers and general programmers can meet and help to layout the best ways to teach new programmers.
Editing to add:
Url: teach_programming
Display Name: Teach Programming
would this be similar to the /r/learnprogramming community on reddit? Sounds like a good community though!
Sure! Was thinking in a more teacher focused approach, but maybe it’s better to have a wider focus, learnprogramming sounds a great idea!
sorry, I wasn’t trying to get you to change what you wanted the sub to be about. If you want it to be teaching based then I can do that!
Uhmmm… If it’s ok to you, let’s try learnprogramming and teachprogramming, and we can see the engagement they both get.
I would love to have this community. Teaching programming requires a special set of techniques and it would be cool to discuss with others. @Jaumel, what level are you teaching at - high school, college, university (if that’s different from college in Spain… sorry, idk much about the spanish system).
I’m teaching at the university level - both graduate and undergraduate.
Could we get a CSharp community? So /c/csharp, display name C# (or C Sharp)
Second this! Or even a
dotnet
community to sort of umbrella some togetherThe community has been made over at https://programming.dev/c/csharp! If you want to be a mod let me know and make a post on the community (so Lemmy lets you be added)
I’d love to see a functional programming community (url name:
fp
, display nameFunctionalProgramming
). I’m most interested in Haskell, but it might be best to start with a larger umbrella and split into smaller communities if/when there’s a sufficiently large userbase to justify it.I think elsewhere it was mentioned that there’s a 3-character limit on the urls, perhaps
fp-langs
?perhaps
functional-programming
. That would be more inclusive of people doing functional programming in languages that might not necessarily be considered “fp languages”.Created over at https://programming.dev/c/functional_programming! If you post in the community I’ll make you a mod if you want
I’m working on getting the 3 character url limit removed, but probably will be a while…
Suggestion for a programmer humor community similar to r/ProgrammerHumor (display name
Programmer Humor
slug can be something likeprogrammerhumor
orprogrammer_humor
)Arguing about how one language is superior to another and the never ending tabs vs spaces discussion is a very important part of dev culture.
I didn’t saw this comment at first so I deleted my comment :)
Letting you know that I made a programmer humor community in the instance :) Since you also suggested it if you want to mod it let me know (and post there) and I can add you
I would like too add
neovim
/Neovim
community.As a fellow neovim user, great idea! :) I’ve added it! If you post there I can make you mod if you want :)
A datascience community would be awesome.
is that what you want it to be called? I updated the post, I need the ‘url style name’ (data_science or something) and the Display Name (
Data Science
)That sounds good. I have since found a couple of communities on other instances, but it seems like it would be appropriate to have one for programming.dev as well in the name of distributed infrastructure.
Could we get a sysadmin community please?
And a privacy community?
Thanks
C++!
cpp
andC++
I guess?Created over at https://programming.dev/c/cpp! If you post in it I’ll make you a mod if you want
What happened here? I saw it yesterday, but seems to be gone again?
huh yeah thats weird, I couldnt find it in the community list but I can see it from https://programming.dev/c/cpp@programming.dev
Looking into getting that fixed, for now the link I posted in the other message works to see it if you want to post to it
Tried unsubscribing and subscribing again, and now it’s in “Subscribe Pending” state
seems to be fine now
