Particularly one that you personally would like to post/comment in on a regular basis
It doesn’t work that way, sadly. Successful niche communities split off from bigger ones after there is enough shared interest to make the split necessary. Creating a new empty community from nowhere will likely result in its staying empty. That is the state of many niche communities we already have.
Everybody is obsessed with with copying Reddit here.
Nobody wants to put in the work to build it organically like Reddit was, they just want to press a button and have a bot “seed” content until poof! There’s a community!
It just doesn’t, and won’t ever, work that way.
I don’t necessarily disagree, but Reddit wasn’t all OC at the start, either.
I guess now there are so many social media sites now that some people spend all their time, to paraphrase Cory Doctorow, cross-posting between 5 sites for Internet points or to build a following. It sucks, but plugging away posting OC will build it up over time.
Did I say anything about OC?
Sorry, I assumed you had a point beyond “Reddit bad!” My mistake.
i did, but based on your comment history i am not too surprised it missed you.
Project Zomboid community.
British panel shows.
Listed links to stream episodes of shows like Taskmaster, Have I Got News For You, QI, Would I Lie to You, and 8 out of 9 Cats do Countdown.
When daily news and life got too grim, it offered 30-60m of just brain dead funny distraction. Now, have to put up with Google and Youtube search bullshit and most of the time they’re wrong.
I’d be pretty thrilled with more discussion on the topic too. I’m glad for [email protected], but wish we all had a bit more to say in there.
I wish there were more philosophy related communities
Game emulation communities should be larger.
There is https://lemmy.world/c/retrogaming which has some tangent discussions.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
One that shows big machinery. Like cranes, trains, excavators and stuff like that
well since this is the highest voted comment (at +11) as of this writing, I created that community. Hopefully some people who have the same interests join along too.
https://lemmy.world/c/cranetrainexcavators I was going to Call it cranestrainsandexcavatorsandstufflikethat but Lemmy has a silly 20 character limit ;)
Thats very nice of you :D I will subscribe to it and post as soon as my instance allows again, it has some weird server error that allows me to see posts and comment via the api but not much else
Yeah something weird was happening, this comment just posted but it was trying to load yesterday and wouldn’t load.
Sometimes, when I’ve researched something and compiled a ton of useful information about a topic… wish there was a lemmy for that. Kind of the opposite of asklemmy.
Informlemmy?
Snack exchange
Sports subs for my favorite teams, game day threads used to be a lot of fun watching along with everyone around the world
The neocities subreddit, im in the discord though
I don’t think it’s big enough to support small separate communities yet. I think we need to let smaller similar communities exist inside larger ones
I miss /r/rain and /r/cosyplaces
Me too.
Let’s do it. Let’s make a rain community here!
Already exists [email protected]
Oh ! I missed it ! Thanks a lot ! 😊
Nice! Thanks.
Boxing. Will never happen tho. That’s the only reason I keep a Reddit account.

I haven’t listened since the first “campaign” but I love the discourse.
What’s TAZ?
The Adventure Zone, a DnD-flavored storytelling podcast that started out strong, but then… Became strongn’t.
There’s not many of us, but I wish more fans of the Aubrey/Maturin series were here. Also Discworld.
https://lemmy.ml/c/discworld exists, but is not (yet) very active.
