Hi folks, are you hoping anyone picks up the torch and makes a community on here? How about a wishlist? Hopefully this will give a poke to others with mutual interest and to support some collaboration!
Running these things is not hard, a fun hobby and due to the nature of the Fediverse, rather laid back. Do not be afraid to try and take control of your content. This is what this place is about. You have agency here. If you have and idea and would like help with starting a community, raise your hand here!
I'll start:
- Wild Green Memes for Ecological Fiends
- Palaeontology
- Climate
- Meteorology
- Volcanism
- Entomology
- Oceans
- PlantClinic
- Hydrology
- History of Science
- Open Science
- Digital Humanities
- Ferns
- Orchids
I also used to frequent r/thalassophobia and r/natureismetal, not sure if those would fit the bill here.
I am not typically someone who contributes with posts though, but I'm happy to moderate if you guys need a hand.
My concern is with starting a lot of communities and have no material to contribute consistently. I find it rather discouraging to join when I find a subreddit that looks interesting but abandoned
