!privacy@lemmy.dbzer0.com is starting to get more traction, thank you @throws_lemy@lemmy.nz, @LWD@lemm.ee, @Forumite@lemm.ee, @cm0002@lemmy.world and everyone who posts there

FYI @fxomt@lemmy.dbzer0.com

!Bside@fedia.io an community for alternative gaming is slowly growing at the moment there are 79 subscribers. so far from the 35 post only one is not mine. I get some occasional comments which is nice.

I a pinned thread with a collection of news in a form of a zine somewhat similar to what user PerfectDark does from the steamdeck and games communities. It includes a poll asking if game mods and romhacks should be part of the community and so far I have only 3 votes.

!android@lemdro.id still going strong.

Seems like !android@lemmy.world isn't as active anymore, maybe this will lead to consolidation

The various spaceflight communities I've been growing (!spacex@sh.itjust.works, !spaceflight@sh.itjust.works, !spaceflightmemes@sh.itjust.works, !rocketlab@lemmy.nz) are chugging along nicely, aided by some posts by @llamacoffee@lemmy.world and @jia_tan@lemmy.blahaj.zone.

I've been able to be a bit more hands-off with !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net and !teslamotors@lemmy.zip, thanks to @Sunshine@lemmy.ca, @sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al, @schizoidman@lemm.ee, and @BrikoX@lemmy.zip. I've started crossposting some posts to !byd@lemmy.world, !geely@lemmy.world, !rivian@lemmy.zip, and !xiaomi@lemdro.id to build them up a bit.

Attempted consolidation of corvid communities to !corvids@sopuli.xyz went... poorly, but hey, you win some, you lose some.

!cubers@lemmy.world had a few posts in the past week, which was nice.

I'm still feeding !nosafetysmokingfirst@sh.itjust.works with Reddit content, but a couple weeks ago someone other than me posted one!

Memes on !leaky_cauldron@diagonlemmy.social seem to be getting quite a bit of traction, though the inactivity of the single admin on that instance is a bit worrying in the long-term... might be soon time to consider relocating.

I've been starting to get a few posts (besides me) showing up in !star_trek@lemmy.zip, so that's good! I feel like there are a few too many communities (there are 7 general Star Trek communities, plus the more specific ones) for the amount of users currently here, but that's how it goes! The community founder decided not to continue, so I decided to take over rather than let it disappear.

crazypeople.online has seen slow but steady local growth as well as growth within the communities we host. We have a few regulars in most communities now and new people engaging with the content more regularly. Here's the rundown:

Gained ~20 Subscribers

• !eternalplaylist@crazypeople.online just shy of 200 this week.
• !weedtime@crazypeople.online exactly the same at 198.
• !pokemonTCGM@crazypeople.online breaks through 100 subscribers this week.

Gained ~15 Subscribers

• !loweffortmemes@crazypeople.online over 130 this week.

Stagnant Growth

• !autoracing@crazypeople.online still just over 50.

A BIG THANKS to everyone across the fediverse who participates in our communities. I don't want to tag the same few people every week but you're all awesome for helping turn an empty space into communities with a pulse. 🙏

We try to offer some low stress retreats from some of the more headline dominated communities. If you haven't checked us out you definitely should, you might find your new favorite hang out.

I love how different people respond to these threads every time. Really helps me discover cool comms.

!buyeuropean@feddit.uk still going strong, hopefully we're getting closer to consolidation with !buyfromeu@feddit.org and !BuyFromEU@europe.pub

Quite happy with !fediverse@piefed.social, thank you for everyone contributing there

!metaldetecting@lemmy.world is off to a great start with over 60 sub's, I hope someone else whos into detecting on Lemmy will eventually post occasionally too. For now its just me digging holes in my back yard a few times a week.

I recently took over !localllama@sh.itjust.works the mods were inactive for years and the pinned post were outdated which started to bug me after months.

I didn't like the description was just "were a replacement for the reddit r/localllama community" with same thumbnail and everything. Fuck reddit, our communities aren't cheap copycats nor should we treat them that way. So I rewrote the description and helped make some new community artwork. People seem to like the new changes which I'm happy about I spent hours editing and colorizing that stupid purple llama picture.

I also recently became mod of !vaporents@lemmy.world and gave it a similar glowup with new art rewritten description and unpinned years old inactive post.

I'm not super big into number tracking except for metaldetecting since thats truly my baby. I hope the communities I look after continue to grow at the speed they were meant to.

!neat@lemmy.world I made it to post random stuff I couldn’t elsewhere. On rare occasions others post. Satisfied with that tbh since its not like I have a karma score or whatev

!ask@lemm.ee still getting regular activity

!animation@lemm.ee is doing pretty well. We're close to a thousand subscribers. One thing I've noticed is that even on the occasional days where there are no new posts, we're consistently getting new subscribers. I'm guessing it's a testament to the staying power of certain posts and also the fact that the community is pretty high up in various animation/anime/cartoon related directories.

It's something that's made me more comfortable with going a day or even multiple days without a new post whereas in the past I would desperately search for anything remotely relevant to post and sometimes find myself a little burnt out because of that. Now, not only are there a decent number of other regular posters but I don't really freak out too much if I can't find anything compelling and relevant to post.

!gothindustrial@lemmy.world is going great, we got some new mods and frequent posts, I'm building up a backlog of music to listen to!

first day for !bitofarambler@crazypeople.online

focused on traveling Q&A and a podcast i started

Sigh... Kinda bad. I don't search for latex porn and photos like I used to, real life and all gets in the way. !shinyporn@lemmy.world

Lemmy doesn't feel as centered around that stuff, and I don't think that's a bad thing.

!WomensStuff@lazysoci.al has been going great, it's a really great group of people and interaction is good. I've been blown away by how supportive so many lemmy men have been about it!

!Witchesvspatriarchy@lemmy.ca has a new mod, she's keen to develop it so I'm excited to see where it goes from here

Pleased that !automationgames@lemmy.zip has attracted posters who aren't me in its first few days of existence! Thanks to it I played some automation games again. Mindustry may not be for me… I'll give it an honest shot but I just hit the tower defense tutorial and am feeling a bit leery. I'm not a "violence in video games is bad" type so not sure why I am getting like this.

Waiting for the day the Fediverse gets more users. I mod 3 communities now and I am letting it go because small platform, someone has to provide content, and although I am fully capable of posting without being a mod the things I'd like to post about don't always have preexisting communities (or have a dead one, so precedent to recreate—the "hey that's too specific, just post in a big general community" hurdle tends to be presented less often when the community already existed on the Fediverse). But in a normal situation this feels too powermoddy.

I have been thinking of starting something up. Is there a guide? Mines pretty boring but I might attract a few other simple craft geeks.

@Stern@lemmy.world I just realized I posted the other thread in the wrong community

!noyank@lemmy.ml went through a week of dormancy but seems to be waking up with the daffodils and has hit 400

@Snoopy@jlai.lu , sorry I just realized I posted the first thread to the wrong community 😅
