So far:
Literally just asking the same people twice. It’s not like the two dunk pages have radically different communities, it’s the same people just arbitrarily splitting their posting between two places because mods told us to.
Feels like a classic case of mods making work because they want to feel like they’re working, just like splitting the comms was in the first place, but sure at least it’d be pretty harmless this time.
or because I don't mod that comm and don't feel like it's my place to make decisions for it
Throwing my support behind this as well. I get why the renaming needed to happen, but splitting the comm into two never really made much sense to me, and just seemed like a solution in search of a problem. Reunite the comms, call it c/dunk or c/slop, and let people post what they want. I think the fear that the resulting comm will get flooded by type takes is probably overblown, but that could get addressed later if it turns out to be a problem. People who don't want to see the dunking can block the comm. I can't imagine that there are a ton of folks out there who had c/slop blocked but not c/gossip (or vice-versa) anyway.
