Many communities exist, but mostly on paper.
What I haven't found yet is something substantial and informative like /r/askhistorians.
Be the change you want to see. I noticed that every time I post even a small thing on those empty communities, people come and contribute.
It’s mostly an empty dancefloor issue, nobody wants to be the first
The other day I linked an interesting perspective on AI on !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world , hopefully those kind of exchanges happen more and more
Well, you’ve encouraged me to make a comment! And given me a great community to watch Lemmy grow!
That's great, happy I could help!
I’ll do the same :D
Very true, and that's why I think everyone on Lemmy should probably focus on a few core communities instead of spreading across niche ones that are empty. For instance, I think that photography communities (both .ml and .world, as well as other instances) would benefit from just posting to pics for now, to gain more traction on those ones.
Once we reach a constant flow of content, then it will be time to split.
On paper? Wtf? I don't see that taking off. Is it a paranoid privacy thing?
