I'm not a particularly entertaining or creative person outside of my music (which I don't think anyone would care about), but I do like to post and interact with text posts like AITA/NoStupidQuestions/ChangeMyView/etc, so I look forward to taking part there.

I'm yet to find a way to see memes etc. But I'm sure with the influx of people it will all come together

I think the hardest thing to overcome will be community duplication across instances. When searching for my old subreddit subscriptions' parallels, I had to dive into the duplicated communities a few times to see which one had more posts/were more active.

Of course, the gentlemanly thing to do when creating a community would be to check first, but that's obviously not happening all the time. Then there's what to do if one gets created; should the instance admins get reports and yeet them if it's determined to be a copy?

Good practice; See a post that might fit a theme sutiable for somewhere else? Cross post it to a place that it suits. You can go to the community and search for a place like "Facepalm" and crosspost it there.

I have been trying to raise interest for other communities Mildly Infuriating has hit 2.81K members which is staggering, I'm honestly so happy to see it but we still have a way to go. I have every desire to spread the people of the community around as it's a win for Lemmy and a spite to Reddit. It's in our interest for the fediverse to explode and grow with content.

It's why I'm also advocating for communities to partner with each other. You can place links to other communities that may have a similar theming that other people might like. It would be a great way to offer up more content, and give that much needed love to communities starting and growing! <3

First comment!

Agreed, I tried to use lemmygrad.ml when my reddit account got banned before but I eventually went back to reddit because there wasn't much activity. I hope people stay and continue adding content.
