What some Lemmy communities that are dead or very low number of new posts that you would like to get more active?

There's absolute mass quantities, as Beldar the Conehead might say.

It's easy enough to guess that plenty of people just grabbed a community name in case they might find it useful one day, but I'm guessing plenty of others legitimately started up a community, put some effort in to it, then ultimately got discouraged and abandoned it. A big part of that likely due to not being able to attract many subscribers and contributors.

Personally what I've found is that if you really want a community to grow, you need to seed it with content on a regular basis; preferably daily. Posting bots are probably a good way to help with that, altho if the sub looks like it's little more than bot posts, I don't think users will be inclined to post or comment much.

What I haven't quite figured out myself is how to incline users to post on their own, but hopefully with time that issue will kind of resolve itself due to sheer user count.

Btw, see here:

I'm one of those guys who abandonned the communities i created. In one of them i posted 1 or 2 posts every day for 4 months after i realized that i was the sole poster i decided to stop
- I'm usually the only poster in the one I created, but I'm happy knowing a few people read it.

There's a really cool one I used to love called The 13th Floor that used to be active and then one week the mod and his friends disappeared.

After the mod was gone for a month I took over moderation to protect it from spam or deletion, but I have other projects so can't really do it justice. I would love it if it got a new lease on life.

Link for Lemmy.

Link for kbin.

I will help get that one back up and going again. Can you describe the purpose of it a little better so I can do this? I'm pretty good at keeping communities alive.
- Hey, neat! Thank you! It's an "imagination engine" - the original mod @Arotrios kbin.social wrote a detailed description here.
  
  I never really fully got my head around it but it seems to be a combination of art, poetry, music, cinema, mythology, etc and a lot of the posts in it bounce off other posts in it.
  
  I don't think Lemmy uses hashtags but it still gives you an idea:
  #13thfloor #cinemainsomnia #oddradio #poetry #magic #imagination #storytelling #music #history #mythology #archaelogy #art #fiction #writing #environment #physics #magick #cinema #books #literature
- P.S you have to scroll back 6 months fo start seeing all the posts that aren't me.

Regional Lemmies. Not holding my breath.

It's really location depend. For Europeans, the sidebar of [email protected] lists the national communities, the bigger countries are usually the most active

AAP sounds interesting, so here's a link for others who want to see it (yours wasn't clickable for me) - [email protected]

Communities for underground music and the one for roller skating.

While we have tons of DND meme channels and some dedicated to tabletop RPGs in general, I would really love to see lemmy.world/c/dm_academy flourish. I got invaluable tips and feedback to the campaign I'm GM'ing.

c/goblincore would be nice to revive. I was doing some posting but I am not a goblin and not that good at picking content.

[email protected]

There is some activity, we even had an AMA with a director/actor, but the discussion threads dedicated to movies struggle to get comments (the one notable exception being Dune Part II)

All of them.

I browse All and see the same shit I saw earlier far too soon.

Thank you for sharing and I’m glad you like the community! It’s sad for me too that people don’t post/comment much. I posted a lot in the beginning but now I’m letting people post more as I see it having quality over quantity. I would make more interactive posts if I had the time, but anyone is free to do it :) For example, there was someone posting they favourites hip-hop albums of the month

It's me who was posting the collage of my favorite hip hop album artworks but the list was only about the covers, i included albums that i don't like. Now, i prefer to post each album cover separately in hope that it improve the community visibility
- Oh it was you! Sorry I was on the train and didn’t had time to check your username. Thank you for your posts! :)

There was a Berserk community, but searching for it now I couldn't find it. I really liked some topics on the Berserk subreddit. Here I feel like Guts get no love. Just like in the manga

[email protected] it's a fun kind of play pretend nonsense.

Well, most of them that are beyond the 2nd page.

I'm heavily interested in Bluesky, so I started [email protected]. However, Lemmy is overall pretty hostile towards Bluesky, and I'm not willing to go back to Reddit for active discussion about it.

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]
