What Would You Like to See in the Sidebar?
(sh.itjust.works)
The Best Place for Libre Culture Content on Lemmy.
On top of the rules of this instance, the following additional rules apply.
The Libre Culture movement, also called the Free Culture movement, is a social movement constructed around the free exchange of ideas.
Regarding a definition, I'd try to look for a succinct one, as longer text in the sidebar tends to look busy and overwhelming. Maybe alongside it a few examples of libre projects/media, say stuff like Project Gutenberg and LibriVox to creative software like Krita/Godot/Blender/etc. Examples would give a much clearer idea of what's considered libre culture to discuss than a definition alone.
Also I think the idea of clarifying what sort of posts are allowed/desired is good, and speaking of memes, some restraint may be wise to avoid it becoming simply a meme community. Maybe a semi-regular memes thread or something? If said threads were active enough then you would have a better sense of whether or not setting up another community dedicated to them is worth it.
