I actively try to post when I see this happen.

What communities are you experiencing this with? Maybe we share some interests.

My favs from Reddit were "Data is beautiful," "Next fucking level," "Life pro tips," maybe their more active alternatives exist on Lemmy under some other names?

I know the other two, but what's "next fucking level"? Just crazy, over-the-top shit?

Not even, on reddit it's just reposts of cool but rehearsed tricks.

There was plenty of wtf talent on there too. It wasn't all the 7000th try to make a basket from the top of a building.

For me it's disc golf.

Funny animals.

Trackers.

A lot of the OC nsfw subs aren't nearly as active yet, especially if they're more niche.

MMA.

I'm holding out for ButtSharpies, not really the change I want to be in the world though.

That sounds like quiter talk

Unless you had a previous account, I definitely saw someone else complaining about the lack of active disc golf communities recently. Hope you find each other and talk about disc golf.

What mma community are you watching? I want to find a place to talk about mma

Kbin is somewhat active, particularly on fight nights

That’s what I’ve been doing at czech-lemmy.eu and it isn’t growing :( Czechs seem to be comfortable with Reddit.

How bout your friends or Czech spaces elsewhere on the Fediverse?

Just trying to be helpful and optimistic

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

your friends

I don't have friends. I'm a Lemming (former Redditor), after all.

elsewhere on the Fediverse

Good point.

There's [email protected] but federation with Lemmy does not really work at this point.
There are several Mastodon instances like witter.cz which are reasonably alive but I prefer Reddit-style social media. I might need to compromise on this, though.
Hive and Dread have been suggested but I can't imagine the crypro-heavy or dark web platforms attracting a meaningful crowd.
