Man, I really hope more traffic starts heading into some of the more niche communities because getting a new thread every day or there and getting 1 or 2 replies - if that - is not how you sustain a site.
Are there really that few people into cars or engineering or DIY stuff on Lemmy?! Where the fuck are my fellow car and tinkering nerds at? And no one does projects around the house? So few posts in some of the home owner communities as well.
I'm right here, where are you guys? Still looking for a good homeowner and DIY community on lemmy.
Homeassistant, HomeImprovement and woodworking are the only ones that I found that are mildly related and even then the traffic there is sparse.
I've created https://communick.news/c/makers a while ago, it would be great to have more people there.
I got no problems joining a community, but I don't even see HOW to do so. Usually I see a "subscribe" button or something, but I have to sign in. But I am already signed in to Lemmy. Does this mean creating a whole new account? I don't get how and why these various sites don't work together.
Try https://lemmy.world/c/makers@communick.news
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: !makers@communick.news
That worked. At least I believe it did.
It does look like there is a new subscriber. Welcome. :) Feel free to say hi and post whatever you think belongs there.
