!thelittlethings@lemmy.cafe

Yeah I just created the community on one instance and now the instance is shutting down so, making it again on lemmy.cafe instead.

We actually had some posts already on the old community which was awesome to see. I know it's a bit tedious but I hope those of you who liked it and contributed join back!

(Not sure if this kind of post is technically in the spirit of "new communities", especially since I literally made the same post like a week or so ago but, I'd hate to see the budding community die because of things outside my control)

As I already told you once, they are a bit different from what I had in mind

!wholesome@reddthat.com is definitely positivity-focused

Post whatever little thing brought you a bit of happiness, gratitude, good vibes or so. Photos, text, memes, videos etc. are all fine so long as it’s accompanied by at least a short share on what you appreciate about the thing you posted.

Big happy shares are welcome too, but no share is too small.

!thelittlethings@lemmy.cafe

We’re here to help you have a better day! For all wholesome and heartwarming content including memes, news stories, etc.

!wholesome@reddthat.com

In practice !thelittlethings seems to have gotten more people sharing things that specifically made them smile, occurrences in their lives; while !wholesome is Lady Butterfly posting online images/memes/comics and a weekly thread. I can see why you would want to consolidate to get more personal discussion in !wholesome in an existing community already, but I can also see why the community that has people actually sharing from their lives would not want to fuse from what they have to what is in !wholesome.

!thelittlethings definitely should not merge with !casualconversation though.
