Toki, comrades!
I created this community because I wanted to create a Toki Pona community for socialists and communists of the materialist variety, the mainstream Toki Pona community is hosted on a discord called “ma pona pi toki pona” which while an incredibly useful resource with it’s own share of leftists is also home to liberalism, vulgar idealism and hosted on Discord which I do not like as much as Matrix!
I intend to create a space on matrix for this community hosted on the genzedong matrix server, too. If anyone wants to help me sort this out and be a mod on the matrix space, hit up my inbox or reach out to me on Matrix: @catfish:genzedong.xyz
I’m looking for mods to help me organize this community with a reworked sidebar with a Toki Pona translation and to help me come up with weekly threads too, feel free to reach out to me with the methods listed above if interested and I look forward to having fun with Toki Pona with you!
Hexbears are cordially invited to this Toki Pona community I’m creating at !tokipona@lemmygrad.ml!

I have been wanting to learn toki pona for a while now (I am too dumb to learn a big language), might have to finally do it. Any suggestions for videos/resources? I know jan Misali has at least set videos.
Yes! Dessalines actually has a little page on Toki Pona resources here! but it’s a bit dated. For YouTube videos I absolutely second Dessalines’ recommendations but in general I’d love to let you know about https://sona.pona.la/wiki/Main_Page which is a fantastic wiki source for anything you could possibly want to know about Toki Pona!
I also recommend the main books written by Sonja Lang, the lipu pu, lipu ku, and newly printed lipu su. These resources are amazing and I particularly encourage picking up the lipu ku. If you have trouble getting the main books, Sonja Lang is in the ma pona pi toki pona - Discord server and she’s always happy to help people struggling financially or otherwise in procuring physical copies of the books!
I think your first stop should be https://tokipona.org/ which is the official website for the language and also carries a whole bunch of useful resources. :)
