Hello,
As everybody knows, content discovery on Lemmy can sometimes be a bit tricky.
To help smaller communities to get more activity, I launch this thread for people to promote the communities they are active one.
One important criteria: please only promote communities that have been at least one post in the last 7 days. And if there is none, feel free to post there and then promote it here!
This could be a weekly thread, but let’s see how it goes
Finally, !newcommunities@lemmy.world and !communitypromo@lemmy.ca are communities that you can subscribe to to see updates about communities
Maybe make it a monthly thing on the first or last day of the month?
I’m a bit biased but I like !eric_posts_urls@discuss.online
!cyberpunk@lemmy.zip - mostly games, movies, shows, and music in the cyberpunk sci-fi genre
!wavemusic@lemmy.world - music: synthwave, vaporwave, etc. A fairly new community, a couple different people have been posting
!gothindustrial@lemmy.world - music community. I was hoping someone else would make the 300th post, if not I’ll post something later today.
!fullmoviesonyoutube@lemm.ee - a larger community, a couple of us are posting regularly, but could use more discussion
!fedigrow@lemm.ee - a community about how to help grow the fediverse. @Blaze@reddthat.com has been posting a weekly thread on “how is your [niche] community doing?” which is kind of like a support group for people keeping communities alive
edit: how could I forget, !shortstories@literature.cafe - links to short stories online in all genres
- !imaginaryfairies@lemmings.world
- !yoursinclair@retrolemmy.com
- !britishcomedy@feddit.uk
- !beds@feddit.uk
- !raining@sh.itjust.works
I think the rest of my communities haven’t seen activity lately, so I’ll have to post in them first!
I did not expect !beds to be about Bedfordshire. I assumed it was furniture related.
I was going to put Bedfordshire in brackets next to that, but I forgot. I knew it could cause confusion!
For those situations where all you can say is wtf?!:
Were the community rules copied straight out of Reddit or something? 3 and 9 are a bit funny.
