I’m looking for a good instance to join for work use - specifically something with communities focused on cybersecurity, systems engineering, programming, devops, etc. No NSFW stuff, world news, entertainment.

I’m on the fence about this kind of question - it’s not open so it breaks rule #1. However, I got pushback last time I removed something similar. What’s your preference on this kind of post?
I prefer not to see them because people can use the search tools to find communities.
I think they should be removed. I thought asklemmy was the equivalent to askreddit. I think this would be more fit to [email protected] or [email protected]
I wouldn’t call it an exact equivalent - we can make it what we want. I also didn’t frequent askreddit so don’t have a clear example.
I’d say go ahead and make “not for questions about lemmy” a hard and fast rule, and link to some subs that might be better for that (https://lemmy.ml/c/findacommunity, https://lemmy.ml/c/lemmy_support). These aren’t open-ended questions. I’d rather this be for questions that will prompt interesting responses based on people’s opinions and experiences.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected], [email protected]
It doesn’t really seem to fit the spirit of the community. However it’s still so small I don’t really mind. That said these choices impact the future culture
I feel like it’s rather open, but I see your point. Having re-read the rules it’s likely breaking rule #3 as well.
I know I can search for instances, but then all I have to go by are the name of the instance, and what the person running it thinks it is. I wanted to get some real feedback about how people are actually using them.
It seems from the upvote ratio, people generally appreciate that I posted the question here.
Not saying I disagree necessarily, but I just want to point out many people interact from their feed without even noticing what community it’s on.
