It looks like Lemmy doesn’t do that, but I see them after every post (in a smaller font) over here on kbin.social. Here’s a quick link to your own post over here - you might need to open it in a browser where you aren’t logged in, I’m not sure: https://kbin.social/m/newcommunities@lemmy.world/t/103987/meta-Can-We-Please-Include-The-Community-Name-In-The.
I just meant for this community. The only reason I didn’t message @Akhuyan directly is because they obviously chose not to include the community name and creating a post would indicate it’s popularity in order to validate my request/opinion.
Hello, I never really thought of it that way. I thought it would be more useful for a description since some community names don’t make sense by themself, but I think including both the name and a description in the title would be more useful.
Saw this post earlier and wanted to respond before continuing to post with the community name added this time but got sidetracked into an internet rabbit hole accidentally, so sorry for the delay in response to this post
For clarification, a post title would be like this? Just to make sure I’m understanding correctly:
New Communities - A place to post new communities allover Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
Basically whatever the url is in the title as well as the description. On Reddit I would upvote any new subs I thought were positive, open ones I might join in another tab, and make mental notes of any useful sounding ones.
Having both the url and the link in the title posts really streamlines things and increases the value provided.
It just says “kbin.social” in small after the title on Kbin, which is neither the community name nor the server on which the community exists. Am I missing something?
I’m not OP, but when I’m looking at each title on kbin’s links feed page i DO see the community name, but when I’m on a post’s comments page itself i DON’T see the community name.
Obviously, for a noob it’s confusing to see kbin next to the title, when this post is actually on lemmy.world.
This kind of thing really needs to be ironed out, if we want the fediverse to ever gain mass traction with the unwashed masses. Assuming that’s something people want.
Hopefully upcoming apps will make it all easier for casual users.
