Dia dhuit agus failte! I am creating this community because I really liked /r/Ireland, but the decisions that Reddit admins have made regarding API access and the frankly awful way they have treated third party developers and the wider user base have left me wanting an alternative.

Simply put, the worst part about /r/Ireland was Reddit and the direction the company was going in.

So with that said, here is an alternative. A community for the island of Ireland, a place for Ireland and Irish people. I hope to enable discussion about news & current events, where people can ask questions, share memes, and just for general good craic and good vibes. Memes, shitposts, questions, discussions and news are all welcome.

I would ask people to not take the piss please, and if ye are going to post articles, please don't post paywalled ones.

Anyway, suggestions welcome. I hope you enjoy this community.

Sadly there's quite a large proportion of NIMBY's in Clare, between the ones that think it'll spoil the view (I'm not sure what is picturesque about Moneypoint and Tarbert) and the full on nutters that think turbines give you cancer/summon Bill Gates, they'll have quite a job getting planning through. Personally I think they should fill it with turbines and tidal.
