Close community? (self.cycling)

I started this early in the recent popularity of reddit alternatives, as I didn’t see any other cycling communities. I don’t really want (or have time) to be a mod, and it seems there are other more active cycling communities

I’ll give it a couple of days, but if there’s not strong sentiment to keep a separate community here on lemmy.world, I’ll close it down

edit: staying open, though we'll see if activity picks up

Not sure I’m 100% down with that. I see where you’re coming from, and I agree those types of posts, as well as some of the Strava screenshot posts are kind of meh, but I do think some odd images add value. For instance, dangerous intersections/infrastructure. Though on second thought, a thousand posts of cars in bike lanes gets a little tiresome.
We could do a poll or something.
I definitely couldn’t mod if we had to be enforcing rules. Would still be interested if it weren’t a text only community?

Having the separate text-only and image/text communities worked well back on reddit

I definitely would still be interested in modding. I'm good with a poll too. Not sure how many responses we'll get but it's probably good to take a pulse of how everyone feels.
