Let’s talk about organizing a Belgian community on the threadiverse (the reddit-like side of the fediverse).

Right now, the community isn’t coordinated, there are multiple spaces that popped up after the blackout. There’s this one, there’s @[email protected], there’s c/belgique, I think there’s one on lemmy.ml too?

What do you guys think we should do? How should we reach out? Discuss!

    If the moderators of /r/Belgium decide to move here we can ofcourse give them a mod spot too.

    On the [email protected] there is not much going on and this community is already linked there as a related magazine. I think the people on kbin will find their way.

    Since the /r/belgium subreddit is now private - I reached out to them. Sent a message about what we wanted to do here and that they’re welcome to join here and that a mod status is open too.

    Since I see there is interest here in getting some kind of interaction going, I can join the /r/belgium discord later and try to talk to someone.

    In the end it’s up to them if they want to do their own thing that’s fine too ofcourse.

    Edit: I reached out to the /r/belgium admins on their discord channel and pointed them to this thread too.

        I reached out to the /r/belgium mods and had a talk with Dakracs on their discord channel. He’s also talking to other mods of /r/belgium and we’ll see from there. The /r/belgium sub is closed currently but maybe they are willing to link to us here. All still open for discussion but we had a good first talk.

        So, welcome Dakracs!

          So far the answers I received were that they were not that interested in Lemmy right now. Not sure if that was only in a modding sense or also a user sense.

          Can’t speak for the users, I linked this community so we’ll see how much influx there is.
