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

1 point

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

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!

Were the community rules copied straight out of Reddit or something? 3 and 9 are a bit funny.

9 has been updated (the original one is “no link to Reddit”), but 3 is indeed funny

Pretty sure it was copied from the subreddit, back when the community was created 😅
