r/macroeconomics is a subreddit with 9k members. The most common kinds of discussions are advice requests and news, and the community frequently discusses macroeconomics, economy, inflation, monetary policy, and economics.
By serious economics I do not intend to in any way exclude but rather to include and even focus on ideas from current and past economists as well as ideas from texts like Samuelson Nordhaus.
