Judging from a recent thread, many people would like Lemmy communities not to adopt a naming that includes the “porn” suffix, which is something that (I guess) originated on reddit but we don’t necessarily need to adopt here as well.

This community didn’t took off yet so I can easily turn it into a proxy community redirecting to the new one that will be created.

Someone already suggested “AbandonedAwe” as a name, which I believe is a good candidate. If someone has other names to suggest, feel free to post them here. I would like to keep the “Abandoned” prefix btw

I claimed !abandonedawe@lemmy.ml just to be sure

    Maybe “Vibes” would be a good stand in? Not sure.

      The “vibes” suffix makes me think about something that isn’t abandoned, but gives you that feeling you get from looking at something that is in a state of abandonment. While such a community should host content that depicts actually abandoned stuff. I think I’ll go for the “awe” suffix

      Edit: re-thinking about this, “AbandonedVibe” might make sense if you look at it in a kinda “oh yeah, c/AbandonedVibes, this is where I should go to feel those kind of vibes” way. But I believe the idea I described above is the one that triggers most times when you read such a name
