I'd like to see people talk in a wide variety of communities. I've been trying to post to !malefashionadvice, and there are a handful of people upvoting there, but the only other posts are super basic questions once in a blue moon. Most posts don't get commented on, and most comments are empty one liners about how nobody should enjoy X type of clothing, rather than anything positive or engaging. I haven't found another fashion community half as active as that.

There doesn't seem to be a Jewish community here... the television community I've found is kind of active, but not really... The NYC community sees maybe one post per week...

It seems like there are plenty of niches going entirely untouched. I feel like people are less likely to discuss hobbies here unless those hobbies are focused on "nerd culture," software, etc. Most communities are just memes or something. !asklemmy seems to be 30% askreddit-type questions, 30% questions about fediverse, and 40% are like, "hey, how do you fix a broken air conditioner" or, you know... non-discussion questions, non-opinion questions, non-story questions, just "help me with this shit" or stuff you could look up in an encyclopedia.

!foodporn seems to be pretty good...

Long text, especially like Hobby Drama type of stuff.

[-] NotSoNaturalRed@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Yes! I miss Best or Red**** Updates so freaking much. Hobby Drama is amazing too. They're like little addicting shows where you're emotionally invested and can't wait for the next series.

To be fair there is Hobbydrama@lemmy.world but they have had 7 users in the past month. You could be the eighth! We really need a way to advertise communities better. People keep asking for this stuff that already exists, but few are finding or using it.

I do think a best of Lemmy would be the easiest community to grow. I see some fire comments (well thought out, new ideas, with sources) on Lemmy that could have fit a community like that.

Original content and dank memes.

I haven't explored communities much lately, what are some good dank meme communities that aren't 196?

[-] taaz@biglemmowski.win 2 points 1 year ago

196 is so good tho, feels better then /c/memes or /c/dankmemes to me

[-] nueonetwo@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

I got no issue with 196, I'm just already subbed and looking for others.

[-] Bonskreeskreeskree@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Music sub genre specific subs participation

[-] mintyfrog@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Communities with older people. I still need Reddit for communities on old motorcycles, cars, etc

[-] Grayox@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago
