Do you think Lemmy is going to cover niche topics like this someday?
Do you think Lemmy is going to cover niche topics like this someday?
I swear I'm not trying to promote Reddit, I'm a refugee as many of us here, I just saw this video linked on r/Save3rdPartyApps and it amaze me that many people used Reddit for niche stuff.
So far Lemmy has been great for me, it really scratches the Reddit itch, using Thunder, Voyager, Jerboa and Connect for Lemmy has been a godsend for this site to me (yeah I cycle them all lol) but it is hard for me finding "less popular content".
I know we are not supposed to lurk to keep improving this site it is hard to stop lurking ngl, I am trying to be more active as many of us do.
Some weeks ago Lemmy wasn't even a shadow of what it is today, but I wonder if it is gonna get as big to cover those niches that people like.
You're viewing a single thread.
Yeah it's tricky. I don't want to start a niche community cause i don't want to be a mod, but i guess maybe the best thing to do is start the community i want, pin a post saying "mods wanted", and post it to !newcommunities@lemmy.world
Yeah, that seems like a nice idea.
Do it! It's honestly not as scary as we think, especially if you start small.
I didn't want to be a mod, but I realised the community I was posting to had a moderation policy that would turn it into not-what-I-hoped-for so I started my own.
It only has 10 subscribers and I'm miles away from the 90-9-1 rule kicking in but it's not stressful at all so far.
What is that rule? For every 90 readers there are 9 commentes and 1 contributor?
Yes, that's the one I mean. At the moment I'm the only person posting in the one I made. I guess it needs another 90 people...
I guess I should post it on newcommunities but I don't know how to make links to kbin communities for Lemmy yet.
