LemmyKnowsBest,

Same. that’s why I’m commenting on posts that are several months old.There’s nothing else to see here.

@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.

LolaCat,

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

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.

CanadianCarl,

I am more of a lurker. I browse and not post. I don’t have anything to add really.

HawlSera,

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.

Daryl76679,

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

HawlSera,

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?

Daryl76679,

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.

The_Picard_Maneuver,

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.

null,

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.

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 actively try to post when I see this happen.

What communities are you experiencing this with? Maybe we share some interests.

ChaoticNeutralCzech,

That’s what I’ve been doing at czech-lemmy.eu and it isn’t growing :( Czechs seem to be comfortable with Reddit.

How bout your friends or Czech spaces elsewhere on the Fediverse?

Just trying to be helpful and optimistic

ChaoticNeutralCzech,

your friends

I don’t have friends. I’m a Lemming (former Redditor), after all.

elsewhere on the Fediverse

Good point.

There’s !czech but federation with Lemmy does not really work at this point.
There are several Mastodon instances like witter.cz which are reasonably alive but I prefer Reddit-style social media. I might need to compromise on this, though.
Hive and Dread have been suggested but I can’t imagine the crypro-heavy or dark web platforms attracting a meaningful crowd.

Be the change you want to see!

@Trekman10@sh.itjust.works avatar

Precisely! I try to comment and post partly for the purpose of generating activity

bamboo,

Me too. I’m doing my part!

StellarExtract,

Content!

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.

Micromot,

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
