I'm really pleased to see [email protected] standing on its own legs along with [email protected]. Really proud of both of these two. Though I'm always trying to recruit @[email protected] to join the moderation teams.
Oh and [email protected] never disappoints. The numbers of new posts and upvotes are good but I'm hoping to try and figure out how to get more commenting over there.
Been a bit busy over the past week though, so I'm not getting to give everything the love I want.
Happy with the weekly thread on [email protected], especially as that community is in the highlight on Lemmy.world. Hopefully that will give niche communities more visibility
Sometimes it's best just to let things be. In my experience, the higher quality conversation tends to be away from LW. But there's some exceptions to that. I wish https://lemmy.film was still around.
What will be great is if/when there’s a multi-Reddit style feature that will aggregate similar communities across instances into one feed. Not sure how you’d deal with duplicate posts though.
Well, on the optimistic side: two thriving but redundant communities is better than two stagnant communities.
Maybe you can embrace it. Like, have inter-community events such as a regular monthly discussion that alternates between communities. It's only a problem when there are duplicate posts, right?
I'm finding I'm a lot less frustrated now that Thunder has great support for cross-posts. On any one post you can see a list of all the other posts, their votes, and comment counts.
It's super easy to jump between all the threads discussing the same thing and participate in them all.
[email protected] is doing pretty good for being such a niche and i think you all should get your asses on your bikes and go on some well deserved fun and cheap holidays too, then post about it there.
Ive made two communities, [email protected] and [email protected]. Wizards recently broke 500 subs and is seeing posts by other users so thats really cool. Gameclub was abandoned awhile back but Ive retooled it and I still think it can serve as a catchall/casual/meme space on the site. I am posting more on other lemmy gaming communities to keep them active as well.
I stepped into a temporary position as a stopgap when the old mod of [email protected] was taking a leave of abscence and it kind of bit me in the ass when the first post in months hit over 200 comments and 15 reports. I've added a couple new mods and Im open to adding more if anyone seems interested.
In all honesty I've started using tumblr more than lemmy, which on one hand is good as it gives me more content to post but on the other hand it means Im not here as often commenting and keeping an eye on things.
I have to say I'm really damn happy with the first half-year of [email protected].
MAU is still nearly double the sub-count so there's tons of interest.
The first season has now finished airing, but I'm going to run a series of manga discussion threads while continuing the usual posts, which should help the people who don't watch seasonally find their way to the community.
The anime adaptation turned out absolutely stellar, and as more people watch it now that a season is out to binge in full, I'm certain this fandom will only continue to grow.
