Hello! I’m craftyindividual, surviving admin of the group.
I’ve been pondering for some time but would prefer a more appropriate name for the group (named in haste after a Reddit group) - open to suggestions and placing a poll. Art and Traditional Art are already taken.
So far I’m considering:
Art for the masses Art attack I can’t believe it’s not Art
ArtOrgy
Keep it as it is. This is how I found it and it’s fitting.
“Classic Art” or “Classic Art Gallery” based on the sharings I’ve seen, and btw-- thanks so much for all your work! (hopefully bot-assisted?)
OTOH, I can’t help but wonder if you’re perhaps overthinking this…
On the internet at least, “something-porn” seems like a pretty clear and instant signpost for the masses, and that’s arguably most important of all. It also possesses the zeitgeist of being down to earth and not overly haughty, so to speak. *shrug*
Oh no it’s cool. That’s why I picked the name. It’s just if I want to show the art to someone… who is less of an internet person I wouldn’t like them to be offended. Pretty sure we can stuck with this name.

You can’t change the group name only the display name, so you are stuck with !artporn@lemm.ee - you might as well just go with it now. Most people will understand it’s not for porn but part of the larger “porn” family of communities.

Removing indexing from everything is an Antipattern:
by forcing everybody to choose between
-
CONTINUOUSLY SPAMMED ABOUT EVERYTHING, IN THE HOPES OF CATCHING THE TINY PERCENTAGE THEY CARE ABOUT, xor
-
blocking ALL notifications about new-items in a community
ISN’T TheRightAnswer™.
Lemmy & Reddit both got that wrong…
( all the gaming stuff should have been under r/Gaming & c/Gaming, e.g, so interested people could go there, & uninterested people could just mute that entire tree of communities )
I’m not caring how the formatting is done ( hyphens, dots, underscores, alternative-hairstyles, whatever ),
but some consistent means of identifying the nature, and the subset, of a community, would be welcome by many people, in the information-deluge world we inhabit.
Just a thought, please let consensus settle it, not some random autistic, eh?
