    Food communities: I think three different people have suggested this now. I think this is really great. But which works best?

    • Today I ate
    • Today I cooked / Suami masak apa hari ini
    • Restaurant hunting / recommendations

    My suspicion is the first one hmm. Also, any better name ideas than !makan?

      Hmm, maybe have people just use tag like [Today i ate], [today i cooked/baked], and [reco] in front of their title? And make it all under Makan or Food. (i think english would be better in case visitor from other instances wanna find malaysian food recommendation)

        I really like this btw! If we have a single !food for everything, we can gradually figure out what people enjoy doing and branch out.

        I feel like [today I made] would be a good catch all phrase! today i cooked bread would sound funny xD but just a minor thing tbh

          Yalor, but i do feels like it’s just guideline lah, [i cooked] for culinary and [i baked] for pastries. But [i made] also can haha, i’ll add it to the guideline later

        Hmm just to share an idea while briefly visiting. What do you think of having one thread per day for sharing “today I ate’s”?

        • That way it won’t take up a ton of posts on the frontpage if everyone starts doing it
        • Plus it’s more cosy, I saw feedback elsewhere that it felt weird making a whole post for random lunches. I kinda agree, it might be fun for people to share their everyday casual meals (not the fancy cooking / restaurant stuff), but it feels a bit intense to post that to the frontpage
        • And there’s this minigame aspect of like, whose lunch/dinner “won” the most votes today which is quite fun
        • Plus it’s much easier to build a little habit of scrolling through everyone else’s food shares and commenting socially, if it’s all within a single post. Like “lunch gang”, keeping track of diets, etc
        • Hmm also might build a nice separation between casual low-stakes food posts, and all the other kinds of food posts

        Just sharing the idea btw, super welcome to not do this. Annnd I’m out, still in crunch. (More time this weekend)

        Edit: Oh and thanks so much for setting up the sub!!
