- I'm not sure if we have a 'canonical' way of doing this, so i'm going to answer with my own opinion.
- Assuming it's a community that is hosted by us, I think the safest way of doing this is to refer to the subdomain and domain.
- so `cooking.codidact.com` will always be unique and distinct and also denotes the URL that it can be accessed at. It's probably OK to drop the `.com` without losing too much.
- I think anything else loses meaning - anyone who doesn't know about Codidact is going to have no idea - so it needs to be pretty explicit.
`Cooking Codidact` doesn't really reference the fact that its a website. By now most people will get by inference that it's a website by mentioning the "dot".

- Some examples of usage:
- > "Hey, have you heard of this cool new site called Codidact? They have a community on there called cooking.codidact that you might be interested in"
- > "One sec, i'm just going to post on cooking.codidact"
- > "Welcome to the cooking.codidact.com community"
