On my side,
Biggest achievement is probably !dataisbeautiful@mander.xyz. Activity is very high: 1.82k active users, the community isn’t even one week old. I’ll keep posting there regularly, the topic seems very popular and has potential.
Started posting to !parenting@lemmy.world, I’m probably going to define daily threads to get some “organized” activity.
Still keeping !linux@programming.dev, the weekly thread should help with getting more activity.
Otherwise, still pretty alone posting on
- !interestingasfuck@lemm.ee
- !yurop@lemm.ee
- !imaginary@reddthat.com
- !avatar@lemmy.world
- !dundermifflin@lemm.ee
Finally, nice success with !movies@lemm.ee, thank you @TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml for your contributions!
Honestly, I’d kind of like to create a niche community (or two) but wouldn’t really know where to start. I still follow some smaller subs from Reddit, but I feel like there just wouldn’t be any user engagement over here (if I tried to start one here), considering how small they are in the first place.
Anyway, I think it’s amazing how fast you were able to grow !dataisbeautiful@mander.xyz in less than a week!
What is the topic? They might be too niche, but three might be another larger one to merge them in
One of them, r/startpages, I tried to start a community on kbin.social, but it really never caught on. Maybe I should have posted more, which might have encouraged others to post. It was actually pretty active on Reddit, with 20k subscribers, but once the API fiasco hit last year, they decided to close down the sub and move to kbin, which obviously didn’t catch on, so the whole community died.
Forgot to mention !football@lemmy.world, which is a bit more active thanks to the Euro
My community !dailygames@lemmy.zip is doing well after it’s first week with 290 subscribers and 75 active users per day.
I have essentially given up on the one and only community I created. I opened !engineering@sh.itjust.works when I first came to Lemmy, and did my best to regularly post interesting things. It was really exciting when I hit 500 subscribers, too! Unfortunately, I ran out of steam before the community took off. I also moved my time and attention elsewhere. At this point c/engineering is dead unless someone else picks up the baton.
Sorry for the rant. But it felt good to get that out.
!electricvehicles@slrpnk.net is doing well, as is !avs@futurology.today. I would like more content over at !selfhosted@libretechni.ca but it’s organic and that will come in time. Football is a dilemma because there’s no moderator there, so even when I check it out, there’s six old posts stuck there. Other than that, I’m kinda just floating around. I probably need to mods for some of the communities that @sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf moderates.

There is a mod, they pinned my post about the prediction post. If you see 6 posts pinned, that’s probably an issue federation, you can ask the mod to pin/unpin them to unstuck them.
If you look at it on the host instance, there is only that post pinned: https://lemmy.world/c/football
!animation@lemm.ee is doing pretty well. Last couple of weeks I have started getting other people posting so I’m not feeling as pressured to find something to post every day. There was also a lot of news to share due to the recent Annecy festival. Now that it’s over, the associated subscriber growth has slowed down a little bit, but I do have some ideas to have more discussion and conversation starters rather than mostly just news all the time.
