    There’s no better feeling than making a post to a dead community, and then suddenly tons of posts start flooding in lol.

    I often find a community i was looking for and there are often no posts. When the last post is 3 months ago, at least there is something but sometimes nothing is there.

      Lemmy’s admins is partially at fault here. Like, you go into the Fediverse to give users refuge from the burnout and dissastifaction as to what they have seen and experienced on bigger social media platforms. Where distrust is at an all time high.

      And then you go and decide to host your main announcements over on a platform where people have stirring feelings of contempt for the platform that is centralized. You are going to alienate your audience.

    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.

    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?

    @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.
