I also made a new account yesterday cause I noticed that it already looked much better than when I last checked. If some of my niche hobby subs move over here I‘d definitely spend more time in the ‘verse.

Performance and design are other big factors I‘m not a fan of right now, I hope someone with expertise in these fields can help the project out, but it‘s already servicable.

Create your own niche communities then! If others find that it exists, they’ll post to it. If everyone waits for someone else to start the niche community, no one will start the niche community.

What niche hobbies are you waiting on communities for?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Some (more) niche community-driven subs of games I‘m playing like summoner school or ADC mains for instance. I‘m patient enough to wait for them (and other features) to come around but I‘m not the right person to make them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Fair enough. I suppose for specific video games you’d be best to follow generalized video game communities for now, such as Games or Patient Gamers until later on.

Subscribed! Thanks for the recommendations.

No worries! As a disclaimer that I should’ve mentioned earlier, I am one of the mods for patient gamers, but I felt the suggestion was in line with what you might like, rather than advertisement. There is another patient gamers community on the lemmy.ml instance but it’s far less active. I have no association with the Games community though

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, the mag or whatever it‘s called over here is perfectly in line with my interests, so you guessed right! I‘ll have a look around and see if there‘s any topics I can add to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Awesome! I appreciate it. We’re a decently sized community but there’s not a whole ton of content being generated over there at the moment, mostly just me and one of our other mods. Once it really gets going though I can see it becoming a fairly active community!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, I can't wait until more of my gardening and home improvement people move over here.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Which gardening subs are you part? Also, what are they called on Lemmy?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I followed gardening, vegetablegardening, nativeplantgardening, tomatoes, peppers, and a few others on reddit.

On Lemmy, I'm subscribed to https://lemmy.world/c/gardening and https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected], but I haven't found communities for the other ones yet. Please share if you know.

Hey I created a Vegetable Gardening magazine on kbin but it's apparently hard to find from Lemmy. You can type the url this way to find it :

Thanks for the link. I’m having trouble subscribing to it but I’ll keep trying.
