Yooo hello fxomt
I thibk it'd made sense to start from the beginning. Section A also seems very important part of the faq:)
Anyone who has advanced could participate I guess on discussions about previous parts or wait or make a new group if there are enough people (kinda doubt there will be enough people)
Afaq is so long that almost surely some will be behind and others will ahead of others, so dunno how it will go๐
I mean I think for AFAQ in particular it's fine if someone jumps in the middle. As a FAQ, it's written with the understanding that people will read it in pieces.
True
Hmm, what if we just do a weekly post about afaq and people can discuss their progress and thoughts without making the post specific to the section each member of the community reads (each user will just mention it in the comments).
It could be like afaq group reading week #1234
I mean this might be selfish but for me personally, it would be nice to have some amount of structure and "peer pressure" to get the reading done. Like "okay here's the part of the FAQ we're on today", and if someone else wants to talk about some other part that's cool too, but you know.. sometimes. it's nice to do things as a group ๐.
I see yeah, cool cool, we could do that:)
Hmm maybe here like hexbear does?
Edit: rereading this I'd like to say that we ended up using both this post on lemmy and the /0 anarchism room on matrix to organise it:)
I say keep it here unless this sub starts becoming too active, then you can split to a new comm
I think a weekly book club style post would work specifically for this, but maybe an "anarchists book-club" comm would be good for going forward and exploring other works? I'd be into that.
I think doing it in this community is fine. IMO it would be cool for newcomers to see that there's theory behind the praxis.
Hmm, I'd probably start from here, see how it goes and if it's too spammy then split it? (also instances with members not subbed to the reading communities might not see that community)
For those who aren't aware of how Hexbear does stuff: reading groups are weekly/monthly/whatever Lemmy threads where whoever runs the group pings everyone in one of the comments. So basically once a week/months/whatever, you'd see a thread about AFAQ, and if you want you can sign up to get pinged.
Oh cool (I too wasnt very sure how they run them:)
