Had an idea, controversial, but what you all think?
project idea : Sniper Week
contents : posts all over the place, open to Fediverse, and tagged with a proper tag (to be decided).
* bio of famous snipers.
* cool arms used
* written materials (I have a German Snipers training manual, WWII vintage)
* photos, links to videos on different places.
And all done in the interest of #History, #Technology and general #Knowledge.
Without attitude. Without offending anyone, hopefully. CW if needed.
Thoughts? Thank you!

@design_RG It would be fun to do science themes each week. Have the community vote on a topic for the next week and then spend that week posting on the given topic.
@freemo That is indeed nice, but it would depend on someone taking the lead, and becoming a Content creator - it's more work than being a passive observer, one click here and there as many people prefer.
This is not TV of course, and some of us ARE active Content Creators. I an take on a project, if I am interested in the theme, personally, to put the time and effort into it.
But your suggestion, of a STEM focused one, could take rotating Leaders as the week's coordinators; so that no one burns out (thinking about me, here, already stretched thin)
We can work on that suggestion, yes.
But for now, I would like to see if Sniper Week draws some response fire. LOL...
@design_RG Yea, unless the community is active enough to all generate content collectively it would likely require one leader each week to make sure we get the momentum.
Perhaps each week people are welcome to propose topics, and those who propose the topics also accept the task of leading the topic for that week (it can be anyone). If we dont get a leader for one week then that week doesnt have a topic I guess.
@freemo That all sounds good -- we are building the idea.
😄 Soon to be consolidated on a Discourse Forum topic, so all bits and pieces can be sequenced and available for reference.
Yep, I like it. Wish we had the Thread Splitting in Mastodon, so we could part this side discussion off the other topic idea. But this is great for the site, I like it and will help.
