With other Virginia communities drying up, this one seemed like a good choice to have some sort of representation for the residents of Virginia on Lemmy.
Unfortunately, the user who created this sub had been inactive for two years and no upkeep was being done.

For that reason, I reached out to the admins and requested to take over moderation so that I could do some basic work to keep the lights on.

To that end, I’d appreciate any ideas of what the community needs (I already unpinned the two year old pinned posts).

So, what does everyone want with c/virginia?

    While the proximity to DC makes all federal news local news, I don’t need another bad news feed. Maybe if the article directly talks about the impact on Virginia…

    Other things I would like to see in no order

    1. Weekly thread bashing of Maryland Drivers
    2. Any fun cultural events going on
    3. Cool geography facts and photos across the state?

    Thanks for taking up mod duties

    I know there was a request to change the icon for the community, as the current one looks like a broken seal. I’m getting an error trying to upload a new one and will get that sorted as soon as I am able.
