Scalies on the Fediverse? (lemmy.potatoe.ca)

Apologies if this isn't the best place to post this... but I've been wondering.

When I was researching moving over to the Fediverse, I noticed I actually couldn't find that much scalie-specific instances. Which of course isn't really bad per se, as we still have instances like this which is totally awesome. But anyway, then when I moved to Lemmy, one of the communities I have been following on that other platform, r/Dragons, doesn't really have a Lemmy equivalent, which is a bit more of a bummer to me. Maybe there just isn't much of us on the Fediverse (yet)? I guess I want to ask this: anyone know of any scalies on the Fediverse? Or better yet, Lemmy communities? If there isn't any of the latter yet, I'd be totally willing to make one! Only thing is I don't have much to post there...

Lemme know what you think (unintentional pun intended)!

I think Lemmy is simply too small for that level of separation at the moment. Of course anyone is welcome to make a new community on this server, but I wouldn't say we are anywhere near the point of content saturation that it's necessary to split it up to prevent stuff from being drowned out. The server is fielding maybe a handful of posts a day locally across all communities, any kind of art or discussion at all will be seen and appreciated.

That's true, yeah. I do really like how the Fediverse is growing (and quickly too!) so we might see that start to happen later on (I sometimes already see a bit of niche communities on Lemmy being created). But at the same time, I do have to agree that although there's less posts, there's a genuineness to each post that really makes me appreciate them more.
