Recommendations thread - eviltoast

Hey everyone.

I thought I’d make a post for anyone to comment on with suggestions they’d like to see in this community. Seeing as it’s starting to get quite a bit more active, and now that we have several mods, we should probably make it more professional looking, with a proper sidebar and maybe some other features you might have seen in another community that you liked.

If anyone has seen ideas they’d like to see here, feel free to suggest them in the comments on this post and myself and the other mods can possibly implement them. I’ll leave this post pinned so it’s easy to access, in case you read this and have an idea later on.

    I’m not against the idea, but I’m not sure how I’d be able to implement it. Most product suggestions come from the users here so all I could really do is ask people to include if the product they’re recommending is exclusive to a specific province. I suppose I could add that to the rules. I will eventually have a master post with a bunch of Canadian alternatives and I could include province-specific labels at that time though

      Just wanted to say thank you. I can only imagine what it would take to make it work, being new here.

        It’s been a pretty pleasant community to moderate so far, which helps a lot. Turns out a community made of mostly Canadians talking positive about Canadian products leads to a nice and welcoming environment. Who would’ve thought?

        One of the other mods is québécois so I have to contact them about translating anything I want to add to the sidebar since I want it to be fully bilingual. I’ll message them later on today about adding something requesting province-specific recommendations to indicate which province they’re available in
