Why or why not? If yes, do you have any suggestions on how to achieve that?

I just don't think there's enough active userbase for that, and it really isn't something you can fix on the fly. The ratio of Like/Upvote > Share > Comment > Post is always an issue for online social spaces, its just that a few website got big enough to make it seem like its easy to get people to contribute.

The architecture of Lemmy is also a little bothersome at times, especially when it comes to displaying media and making gallery posts.

Probably one thing I'd like for LemmyNSFW to have is a Admin owned community for people to share communities and talk about merging, managing, sharing, etc. Something like https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities but for our side of the pond, and now just for new but also talking about present communities and what can be done for them.

    Lemmy's problem is so many groups just don't have enough regulars that look, maybe post, or maybe comment. You go back every few days you seen almost nothing new and you just stop going. I've noticed that a group will regain some life only because a new user will start posting interesting stuff. But then they get board and also move on.

    1. Suggestions - turn this group into a combination of sex questions, sex gifs and pictures, sex stories. It could be made into THE group for sex stuff on Lemmy.

    2. Offer frequent group members the ability to be mods here. Many frequent users got board and left. A person is more likely to stick around if they are a mod and dedicated to the growth of a group

    There are already communities for all that kind of content. Creating one more would just increase the bloat. We don't need to change existing spaces into something else, just concentrate users and have a way of guiding new people into existing communities, to avoid even more duplicates.

    I also don't see the point on promoting people to mods, or why that would make anyone want to stick around. The average user already doesn't want the responsibility of uploading content, why add the responsibility of moderating content on top of that? Not only that, but there's nothing correlating mods to helping a community grow. What matters in that is people interested in contributing.
