Be the change you want to see in the world. Try to start one of those communities over here. Don't be disappointed when it doesn't get traction within a few days. There are some places to advertise new communities here.
I second this. I barely know fuck all about Lemmy, and I still manage to have small community. They kinda just manage themselves, but I'm there too.
Be sure to promote it to [email protected]
That's what I had thought but there are some niche things I'm into and most other people who are into the same, neither have the time nor do they wanna put any efforts into learning something new, heck many wouldn't even know that lemmy exists or there were other clients you could use to access reddit. So I'll have to stick with it.
Also this whole fediverse and instances thing is a bit too complex to wrap head around for people who aren't geeky and just wanna get things done.
Lemmy just doesn't have the userbase for super niche communities though
