Kind of a companion thread to the recent one on !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com asking people which community there were missing.
I had a quick look, and most of those seem to be niches that can’t be filled until we reach a higher population.
There is still maybe some potential improvement about some less well-known community that other people are interested in and that could some additional activity.
I try to help to make less known communities known with the regular threads on !newcommunities@lemmy.world (now moving to !communitypromo@lemmy.ca ), but there is probably only a level of detail we have to stop at with 47k monthly active users.
One example is !jrpg@lemmy.zip, it seems reasonable active, and is probably a better compromise than having each game having its own community.
Similar with !patientgamers@sh.itjust.works, or !showsandmovies@lemm.ee. I posted a thread about Ted Lasso a few days ago, it got some nice comments, but probably not enough to have a full fledged dedicated community.
I agree, but I also don’t want to spam those communities lol.
Like !deus_ex_randomizer@lemmy.mods4ever.com or !stauf_mansion@lemmy.mods4ever.com would be too much spam for one of the gaming communities, or patient gamers.
And it’d be even more spammy for the communities that are in-between in specificity (like !adventuregames@lemm.ee or !deus_ex@lemmy.ml)
I just do rare cross-posts for the most notable posts
Oh yeah, if you can sustain those communities by yourself, that’s great! This advice is more for people who don’t know where to post about a specific topic
