!covidconscious@lemmy.world

There are other communities for discussion of COVID-19, but none really on this topic.

As someone who still masks and isolates, I can’t imagine I’m the only one, and I’m guessing there are enough people with relevant things to talk about to make an active community.

      That’s… a good point. When I make communities, I usually try to err on the side of more general rather than more specific (just because Lemmy doesn’t have quite the userbase of… that other site we never speak the name of), so in this case, I probably should have thought to name it in a way that limited it to just COVID.

      But now, I’ve up and named the community. I’d be fine with making it clear in the sidebar that consciousness about the spread of other diseases is entirely welcome, but I don’t think I can change the name (like, the URL) of the community.

      But, honestly, I’m also down with just making a whole new community and deleting this one. And, to be fair, I haven’t looked to see if a community like that already exists.
