On reddit, stopdrinking seems to be a support network for people who are in the process of quitting drinking, and for folks seeking and giving support for maintaining sobriety. Is that the same goal of this community here?

Something I never found on reddit was a sub for alcohol-free living that was not a support sub – a place for memes, jokes, mocktail recipes, more silly/casual gripes.

What do folks here think about a community like that on Lemmy? I wouldn't want to overly fragment an alcohol-free community, but also wouldn't want to use a support sub for that kind of content.

I think I'm just glad it's here. And in a way, sharing jokes and recipes is a valid method of support too! I guess we see how much traction we get here and whether people have stronger feelings than me :)
