Okay I was a chronic lurker on Reddit but seeing you here gives me hope for the Soccer community on this site, which has thus far been a huge gaping hole. I honestly haven't used anything other than r/Soccer to keep up with football news in many years so I hope Lemmy can shoulder that burden sooner rather than later. It's probably the one part of Reddit that I'm really struggling to replace and/or live without.

Hey o/

Yea truth be told I still visit r/soccer and r/reddevils to catch up on football related news every morning/evening. The communities on Lemmy are still growing and while the more popular communities are very active, niche communities like sports will take some time.

Check out the football community on Lemmy, it's starting to get active. I've recently started posting too.

I'm not sure how to link directly to a community, so here's a link to one of my posts. You can click on the community and subscribe
