There’s no better feeling than making a post to a dead community, and then suddenly tons of posts start flooding in lol.
be the change you wish to see!
Be the change you want to see!
Precisely! I try to comment and post partly for the purpose of generating activity
Me too. I’m doing my part!
Content!
Somewhat but I could be happier.
The great thing (though it’s sometimes a curse) is that posts in any community will show up in the local and all feeds on the host instance, and the all feed on remote instances so long as at least one user is subscribed. So even communities with low subscribers can reach a wide audience.
Which also gives the all page it’s purpose in some form because it does exactly what promised, show everything. This gives everyone a chance at being seen
Commenting for the purpose of generating activity is my favorite activity
In my experience, a lot of these subs aren’t abandoned and have plenty of subscribers, so if you post, people will jump on it.
Can confirm I’m sitting in many communities waiting for content, and always delighted to see it.
If I was interesting, maybe I’d make some of my own.
Or if an otherwise popular community seems dead- maybe your instance just isn’t federating them right, or was never federated before you browsed to it.
damn it’s me every time to find a circle :^)
Your mouth floating away may or may not be related.
“We have determined that your injuries are not service related.”
give it time, people will come to their favorite instances with time. The best thing you can do is make your own posts to your favorite subs and cross post posts you see to other subs they fit into as well.
I am more of a lurker. I browse and not post. I don’t have anything to add really.
Same. that’s why I’m commenting on posts that are several months old.There’s nothing else to see here.
you find your favorite subreddit on lemmy
it’s from lemmit.online:
It’s cool tho it’s like we’re a tiny civilization— I say as a person who made an account a week ago
@nodimetotie Pretty much any topic that I enjoy, I try and add a new post when I subscribe to it and see if people are just waiting for new posts.
Or all it is a bot that reposts reddit posts with no comments
or FOSS nerds flooding in any post to do with technology that isn’t FOSS, ruining the discussion and downvoting everyone who even mentions anything that isn’t FOSS.
Like the post about Windows Paint getting layers and transparency support, and every person trying to discuss it is downvoted, and there’s a flood of comments talking about how you should use Linux because Microsoft is spying.
Like ok? Or lets discuss the fucking topic?
I mean at least there’s some related conversation. You could just ignore that comment or down vote it.
We gotta get niche communities that aren’t just programmers and socialists… I’m a socialist, but I wanna talk to some people about how Porygon is one of the greatest Pokemon of all tiem.
We have the science folks over and mander.xyz and slrpnk.net. Lemmy.world also seems like a very diverse instance to star whatever you want on
Oh cool, where do I find the spirituality folks? Cause I have this on-off relationship with God that I should probably get a definitive on or off answer to. I mean at this point I’m worried I"m making the coupling toxic with this indecisiveness, ya dig?
It depends on what you’re looking for but it seems like they hang out on general servers like lemmy.ml or lemmy.world. The Lemmy Community Browser should help you look for any communities you want to find out more about.
Lemmy Community Browser is cool, that’s a great resource I did not know about. Thank you.
I’m hoping I’m able to stick with the community I made, even if it never gets anywhere. It feels nice to be working on some kind of project. I need new ideas for content, though. I doubt scanning RSS feeds for relevant articles every day is gonna keep things interesting.
Edit: Guess I oughtta plug. SFF Gaming is for sci-fi and fantasy gaming of all types, from video to tabletop and larp and anything else SFF gaming related that I may not know about.
Me: single handedly keeping 9 communities alive

I need help

Hey, I see u doin numbers, too!
Oh, you’re the lifeblood of @gameart, aren’t you? I tried to contribute once, but then my favorite screenshot I ever took never even federated at all and I got too discouraged.
Still sad about it, tbh. No idea if it would happen again or not. I should dig through my folders again. I don’t think I have much, but I must have something
I am! If you have screenshots to share !photomode@feddit.uk is a great place, too!
