Hello vegans!

A while ago I started a discussion to have your input on the future of this community.

I try to summarize the feedback in the following:

  • Generally, people are happy but would like to see a more specific community around anti-capitalist veganism
  • There is an overload of “news” and “studies”, which might be interesting, but not always relevant in the framework of solarpunk. There could maybe be a vegan-news-like community better suited for such content.
  • More discussion and actionable information

Community motto that was proposed and I like: A place for solarpunks working toward a world without speciesism

Proposed community rules:

  • This is not a place to debate veganism
  • There is no place for (carnist) trolls
  • No promotion of commercial products
  • No speciesism
  • No promotion of violence in any way

Generally, the rules should be enforced carefully and only when a post or comment stands in clear violation.

Inviting people to help moderate: Comment on the respective comment if you would like to be a moderator. Some people already reached out to me, please also comment there, so everyone can see who the prospective moderators would be.

Let me know if you would like to change, add or remove something!

      Yes, I would like to moderate.

      Perhaps it’s worth mentioning that carnists looking to debate/discuss veganism could try /c/discusswithvegans instead.

      I also suggest adding these rules:

      • Use Content Warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content.
      • Questions about diet belong in /c/food.
