Art To Cope - lemm.ee

lemm.ee

Self made drawings, writing, art, music, and other forms of self expression created to cope with what gets us down. Official port of r/ArtToCope Community (currently) moderated by a new moderator, in collaboration with the original mod, who currently is not on Lemmy (but I assume will eventually join). Moderators speak english.

ArtToCope is a subreddit I followed on Reddit for a long time, and one of the only communities I missed when I completely ditched Reddit for Lemmy. Recently, I talked to the moderator and we agreed that I should make a Lemmy community for it, as they had also wanted to move off Reddit.

The community is focused on art made to deal with emotions you have, with a large focus on mental illness, with a lot of the most popular posts on the subreddit being about self harm and CPTSD.

I made a ‘welcome post’ for the community here and I encourage everyone who would like to to post there, all art is valued. :)

Not a community I’m personally interested in, but I love seeing more niche communities on Lemmy and am happy to hear that Reddit moderators are continuing the exodus. Thank you and good luck!

Create a post

You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !newcommunities@lemmy.world

A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.

1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.

A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rulebreaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage.

B. No illegal content.

C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.

D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.

E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won’t

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
