I suspect most people aren’t subbing/following communities on Lemmy. So post the community or topic you want to see pop off. And reader(that’s you) if you are interested in that community click the link and follow it.
👏Let’s 👏 start 👏 coordinating 👏 people.
I used to be a big fan of videogame subs, it doesn’t seem like there are many communities here focused on specific games.
Minecraft and rimworld had some great community content.
Guitars. Reddit has numerous active, friendly, supportive guitar forums. Lemmy doesn’t have a single one.
Guitars@lemmy.world is good. I just asked about fretboard oil yesterday and got like 30 comments.
I 👏 want 👏 more 👏 girl 👏 content 👏
To be clear - I am talking about stereotypically “female” subjects, not about the gender itself, and I hope it goes without saying that I want people of all genders to be part of it. Some topics over on reddit are full of guys, NBs, and everyone else, but are what a bigoted 90s teacher would call “female” topics. I want more stuff of what that 90s teacher would call “girly” stuff.
I mean, something like a makeup community. Maybe skincare and fashion. Cleaning tips. Pre and post and peri pregnancy content. The parenting community on lemmy is super quiet. There is a sewing community but it is rather quiet too. I haven’t found a mending focused community yet. Boy there even isn’t a sailor moon community, like 😭 come on
I’m horrible in creating any content tho, so uhm, not sure I should be complaining.
Girl, you gotta post!.. Maybe this fits the bill ? !lemmy_stitch@sh.itjust.works
You can also rally up the gals over at
!womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone
Or !witchesvspatriarchy@lemmy.ca to start a periodic diacussion thread over those topics you propose? Or just post a thread and see how it goes?
Lastly… You are welcome to post in !artshare@lemmy.world I feel the userbase needs more women , so do a lil sketch and join us there!
Reddit allowed us to be ultra passive, but here contributing is almost mandatory, otherwise the communities just die…
I wish people shared their projects and hobbies more
https://lemmy.world/c/gothindustrial has been resurrected and we are slowly growing. It’s not just about music. We include arts, interviews, stories, etc. We are an inclusive community.
I wish there was more MotoGP and motorcycle content in general…
👏Let’s 👏 start 👏 coordinating 👏 people.
Subbed thanks!
You’ll probably see it there, but there are only a few people who will persistently try to grow a community, week after week.
Reading the comments here, it seems like a lot of people would like their niche community to be active, but we have to acknowledge that with our current userbase, more general communities are already struggling to stay active, so niche ones are even harder.
Example: !movies@piefed.social is kept up active by less than 5 active posters, and that’s a generic community about movies.
!cooking@lemmy.world is probably good enough for all types of cooking, you get the idea.
Jesus christ stop making acounts stay blocked
Yeah it’s pretty wild. But if we ask people to join niche stuff. Odds are they’re gonna half as it (at least) and just sub to the bigger ones which… I’m taking as a win.
We need more activity over there. I hope to make a post or two soon, but it’s sad only seeing a couple new posts before seeing things from months ago. C’mon 3D artists!!! Where ya at?
Also:
- !blender@lemmy.ml
- !blender@lemm.ee (RIP)
- !blender@sopuli.xyz
- !blender_3D_animation@lemmy.ml
- !blenderanimation@programming.dev
- !blender@kbin.social (RIP)
- !blender_channel@video.blender.org
Perhaps some consolidation might be warranted here?
Wow, quite a few pages there, but they all have the same problem 😞 not enough activity. C’mon Internet!
I’ll sub to that. Been meaning to get more in to blender
Welcome in!😁👍
The dropout community would be nice to circle jerk with. But I really miss my knock off cheap Chinese fake watch sub. I tried to post to it here but my post got deleted and the sublemmy shut down soon after.
The new Jakob ep of gamechanger was a good time. That being said, I also don’t appreciate how they pushed a player(jess?) to tears(happy tears) in her emotional episode in a way earlier season. Weird lil grey zone I haven’t seen explored elsewhere.
I’m very conflicted. But I keep watching.
https://lemmy.world/c/standupshots One of my favorites from reddit but so quiet here
The Yogscast community for one. That’s what I sought out here first, and it’s dead as the desert.
Shameless self-promotion: !anniversaries@sopuli.xyz
It’s like “On This Day”, “This Day in History”, etc. I’m currently the only poster but I don’t mind, I enjoy regularly looking for interesting anniversaries.
Post anniversaries on any topic you feel like; even personal anniversaries are allowed!
If Lenny were less complicated to understand I would!
!eurographicnovels@piefed.social replaced the lemm.ze version
One of the most well-intentioned and reasonable spaces to discuss this type of stuff I’ve found, but posts are not frequent.
Subbed. I used to love Men’s Lib on Reddit.
