      I don’t want to clutter up a general purpose community with tech support questions. I think of the general topic ones to be more about News or history topics.

        I don’t think there’s enough traffic here that it needs to be separated.

    Good question. Some are saying that you won’t get enough eyeballs on dedicated support forums, but by that logic we should just have one community called “General” which the whole world can spam freely on any topic. Personally I don’t want to have to wade through obscure threads about command syntax here, I want to read news about Linux.

    By the way, if ever you want to discuss that subject, please consider doing it here rather than at lemmy.ml! There are more users there but IMO this is a better home for the flagship Linux community.
