The only successful example I found the other day was https://old.reddit.com/r/FloatingIsFun/, now !FloatingIsFun@fedia.io

If a few other communities could move over there, that would help make the platform more active.

There is a banned subreddit that recently moved here (I won’t mention it to avoid them getting raided, but if you browse All you probably know which one I’m talking about), that was very interesting, and some proof that the current tools (the websites, the mobile apps, the interfaces) could work for people outside of the usual “tech / Linux / FOSS” bubble.

What do you think?

That’s the goal for the community eventually!

I don’t think there are enough medical professionals making that content yet, so in the meantime I’ve been trying to share news/updates relevant to medical professionals. I’m happy to make any changes to the community to help meet those needs.

It seems to be a chicken-egg situation like other niche communities. While it’s mostly laypeople right now, it might just need a few medical professionals to start making text posts there, and then others can find the community over time.

I can also do more promo for it

As always, the good old weekly discussion thread might help to engage with people
