For recipes, questions, and all other general culinary discussion, please sub to !cooking@lemmy.world.


Hello everyone,

We're calling it. The vote posts in Cooking, AskCulinary, Food, and Recipes are all overwhelmingly in support of OPTION 1 so we're moving forward with that decision.

So what does this mean?

  • !AskCulinary@lemmy.world, !Food@lemmy.world, and !Recipes@lemmy.world will all be locked until such time the user-base is large enough to support them. A pinned post will be in each community pointing everyone to !Cooking.
  • !Cooking will be the place to be for all general cooking discussion, questions about cooking, and sharing recipes, so we are asking users of the other communities to sub if they aren't already.
  • Mods will stay assigned to the other communities and we will periodically revisit to discuss reopening them. We are confident Lemmy as a whole will continue growing and we will be able to see every niche community thriving.
  • The more niche communities such as BBQ, FoodPorn, SousVide, and KoreanFood will continue as they are, but we encourage posting in them as well as Cooking whenever relevant.
  • The sidebar to !Cooking will be updated to reflect the changes as well as new rules for posting to help organize the different types of posts.

Thank you everyone for voting and taking part in this change. Any questions, please comment below and we will do our best to answer. Also, if you have any additional feedback, please let us know below as well.

I think this is a great decisien, even though it might be a hard one. I hope other communities follow your way as a scattered community helps less than a united.

Than you, to all of you!

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !askculinary@lemmy.world, !food@lemmy.world, !recipes@lemmy.world, !bbq@lemmy.world, !foodporn@lemmy.world, !sousvide@lemmy.world, !koreanfood@lemmy.world

Welcome to LW Cooking, a community for discussing all things related to food and cooking! We want this to be a place for members to feel safe to discuss and share everything they love about the culinary arts. Please feel free to take part and help our community grow!

Taken a nice photo of your creation? We highly encourage sharing with our friends over at !foodporn@lemmy.world.


Posts in this community must be food/cooking related and must have one of the "tags" below in the title.

We would like the use and number of tags to grow organically. For now, feel free to use a tag that isn't listed if you think it makes sense to do so. We are encouraging using tags to help organize and make browsing easier. As time goes on and users get used to tagging, we may be more strict but for now please use your best judgement. We will ask you to add a tag if you forget and we reserve the right to remove posts that aren't tagged after a time.
