Shouldn’t the mods remove those posts and tell them to post at !cs_career_questions@programming.dev ?

I think it’s a good way to organize the community and grow the ones with less engagement.

    This community got voted to be a collector community for all of the programming content in the instance

    So that kind of thing is allowed to be posted here and people in the comments can give people communities to crosspost it to lead them towards that area for future posts

    This makes it so users can be lead to other communities in the instance to then post in instead of not knowing where to do so (if theyre in another instance they cant browse our local communities very well in the default UI without needing a third party site)

    I can add a way to automate that with a bot in the comments

    I think our communities are too small to worry about narrowing them. When they get too big that’s when it makes sense to split them.

    I agree about the increase on other communities (in particular the cs career questions you mentioned). I am not sure about deleting them, specifically since I consider these parts of this community as well. Just my 2 cents …

      I agree about the paradox of posting about it. But the other comments here indicate that we should only direct the poster to a different community instead of reporting them.
