Communities related to my local city. On Reddit it’s how I found out about some events and local issues.

I just want the user base to grow enough to support small niche communities.

That was Reddit at its best and Lemmy just doesn’t have the user base to support it yet

A whowouldwin community.

Battleboarding communities draw a lot of engagement and help retain new users among the younger demographics.

!piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com is fairly active by Lemmy standards!

c/Mexico... But seeing how most of the "news" from my country in the fediverse are government propaganda (and people get mad when it gets pointed out), I could stay on r/Mexico and it would be the same.
Also a general lack of latinamerican content.

Edit: and I mean fully in spanish.

!fedigrow@lemmy.zip for people wanting to make communities more active

There’s a subreddit for my town but I don’t think there’s enough of us on Lemmy to keep it active.

I actually only found Lemmy because I was looking for another SA community online after my last one had toxic mods. Can't say for sure what it's like here but the SA comm here deserves more attention I feel like. Of course, I could probably post on there some more....

South Africa? System Administration? Sturmabteilung? Sleep Apnea?

We need more memes about US elections

The kind of communities that hand out free sex, drugs, cash or scotch. I'm a simple man.
