All communities included on the sidebar are to be made in compliance with the instance rules. Striker
Doesn't matter. Even if it get only 3 or 4 upvotes still doesn't fucking matter. Just create a community and flood it with content.
The problem isn't that they won't create them, there's insufficient biomass to populate them.
If I want to talk about a 5-year-old video game with myself, I'll just open Notepad.
I've moderated communities before. No thanks.
Yeah the level of effort to keep the community engaged and to moderate the content is a tough job and really only possible for people who are really dedicated.
Going against the post's spirit, but...If you're not finding a community for your interests (or only finding abandoned/inactive ones), and don't want to create one (or try to get existing ones going), you're welcome over in [email protected]. Post about whatever, find likeminded folks, then if ya think there's enough of ya, you can make a separate community without it being one person posting into a void.
Also there's [email protected]. Similar vibes.
This probably has a much higher accuracy rate.
New user here. Where should I create my community? Are there servers or groups or something that I should review first? I don't know the difference between a server and .world or .ml or whatever.
whining about whining. classic!
Who gonna operate the sinkpissers community
I wish instead that people would post in the general communities first, then spin off into a new community if there is interest.
Like, we don't need a whole community for the new Dragon Age game or whatever, but we do have a games community that would benefit from the post. Then if there are 20 Dragon Age posts every day it could obviously support it's own community.
This. All of us Reddit Refugees (me included) fucked up when we arrived and put the cart before the horse. Lemmy is like a small town; you may simply not get all the specific communities you want, but there's probably somebody with a similar enough interest that they'll talk to you about the stuff you like, and they probably have things that you would like to talk about if you saw it. Higher-level categories should do fine unless and until a certain type of content starts to annoy other users by its sheer prevalence.
As someone else said, Lemmy is the niche community.
During the initial mass migration from Reddit I got the impression a lot of people were starting communities on Lemmy that had been successful on Reddit but put no effort into them. I'll bet there is a statistic yet to be figured out that says you need a million platform members before you can have enough members to sustain a niche community like c/gothcountry.
Problem is that Reddit won't let people talk about alternatives, so it's difficult to tell people about it. Lemmy also does not lend itself to following links if you're not logged into that instance. So if you find a link to a community on a different instance you can't comment or engage with it unless you go back through your own instance.
What are you talking about all of you here man! Spending a sec of your time on a community about a subject that you are interested is a really big task for you? That's lame and lazy and shows lack of any vision
You should already brainstorming to make communities more innovative and better than reddit
Lemmy is my niche community
