Community Info
I've asked this before (more than a year ago), cannot find the question or the answers so I'll ask again as I'm returning to our shared hobby...

What is the difference between this community and [info]worldmaking? I'm posting this over there also so I can try to get a concensus from both sides.

Also, I'll be working on a SciFi universe. Is there a prefered community for such endevors?

Thanks!

I don't think there's a difference, or if there is it must be slight. I write mostly SciFi, and some fantasy, so I do a lot of worldbuilding.

Do you follow both communities or just this one? is there a lot of overlap so that posting in both might just annoy people or would cross posting potentially increase the amount of feedback I'd see?

(and thanks for the reply!)

No, I'm just member of this one; didn't even know the other existed until your post.

Don't worry about annoying people, lot of people cross post.

There are a fair few worldbuilding communities but most are very inactive. (Notice the last post made here). I've never worried about posting in other communities, so long as you put anything long behind a LJ cut.

"Worldmaking" explicitly says it's for roleplaying gamemasters. It has a slightly smaller member list. "Worldbuilding" says it's for all world construction related activities. So for SF, Worldbuilding sounds like the more apt location.
