there's no communities for my niche interests!!!
more like "i want a ready-made community where other people already putting effort into posting cool and intersting stuff, and all I want to do is sit on my ass and shower posts generously with """muh upvotes™""""
I keep looking where on my local ATM machine that I can exchange internet points to ducats
doubloons would be acceptable likewise as well

stop lying to yourself. lemmycels only wants linux and american politics
Can recommend. Sometimes it does really well, sometimes it doesn't. Its worth a try anytime anyways
Yes! It is worth a try!
Making a community also implies moderating it, doesn't it? I would understand that there are people who just want to see and post things they like and not have to be aware of banning users or deleting unwanted posts.
I say that because I am part of those people, moderating content is hard.
Well, I've been trying to put some content on !fgc@lemmy.world and !mahjong@lemmy.nerdcore.social, but there's been almost no engagement. I can't imagine it'd be worth even trying to start communities for even more niche topics than that.
Clicking the "Create a Community" button doesn't magically spawn an audience of people who share my hobbies and want to post about them.
Not for free.
Except this link doesn't work properly /c/books , until it does lemmy is broken, the fediverse is broken, lemmy is not really federated.
I would contribute to my niche community, but my foreskin was severed without my consent, so...
