Hi, I’m focusing on generating content for a few communities that I feel can be successful and have less content than I expected:
- !cassettefuturism@lemm.ee: a genre of retrofuturism based on the 70’s and 80’s (more info)
- !awwnverts@lemmy.world: cute invertebrates
- !weirdwheels@lemmy.world: weird vehicles (with wheels)
- !comicstrips@lemmy.world: self-explanatory
EDIT: I did not create any of those communities
I would encourage anyone to participate if you like those topics.
Do you know any other niche-but-not-too-niche communities in which we could focus efforts?
Please, don’t post very long lists, I’m already subscribed to almost 300 communities and the idea is to focus on a few ones.Thanks!
EDIT: Added descriptions for each community.
thank you!
(also, i’m flattered that you think i look organised, i’m very new to this so i don’t feel organised at all)
Note that I said: “you look a bit more organized than small subs”, and that’s not a very high bar, hehe :P.
More seriously, I thought you were related to reddit’s Imaginary Network, which is huge and with some big power-users.
If that’s not the case, then more props to you!
oi! and i thought you were nice
nope, not at all. they’re just the only subs i still follow by rss, and no-one else was making them here so i took up that mantle. and now i have 7 imaginary communities… and there are at least 2 more that i want to exist, so i’m hoping someone makes them soon
Then I will include them on my watchlist and will try to post at least from time to time.
As I said in other comments, thanks to all of you who create and moderate communities. For now, I’m just trying to generate content, which I know is the easier part.
thank you, i do appreciate it
well i haven’t actually had to do much moderating yet — i’ve mostly been balancing seeding some content without spamming the local feed; as well as discussing them on matrix, and sometimes promoting them on threads like this when i remember
Thank you for giving the Fediverse some of that Imaginary Network action I crave from Reddit. I tried asking them to move to Kbin and they aren’t interested. You and @Martineski have been doing a fine job making quality posts and always citing your sources. I hope Martineski’s Imaginary communities come back soon. I want to contribute more to ImaginarySliceOfLife here!
I’d offer my own @FloatingIsFun to join the Imaginary mix, but it wouldn’t work because we accept floaty things that aren’t fictional and aren’t static images. Besides, with that Lemmy/Kbin bug making all my posts appear to come from two hours in the future, I feel like I’ve already gotten more exposure than I actually deserve.
actually i’m also going to reply to you here just to check my message went through, as i’m not sure if lemmy -> kbin messages work
