Yeah, sorry about the run-on sentence title, but I hope you get what I'm saying

I wouldn't mind starting up something like dankchristianmemes bur don't want to keep the hateful types from trying to colonize it

I wanted one for Art but didn't want to be in charge so my husband started it.

I also want to start one for the disease I have but again - don't really want to be in charge of it.

Maybe I think it's going to be more work than it will be?

Hoping a small business sub pops up soon. I learn so much from that one on reddit

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

The Orville, and its less I refuse to be a mod for it, and more that I do not think that putting it on my instance would be the best place for it . That being said I keep thinking about doing that.

You are just describing all of us lurkers and occasional commenters

Sorta, Got a bunch of the more niche communities I was in made, with only two exceptions. I believe in being the change I want made, but I"m hardly experienced as a moderator so it's a new adjustment. They're also existing communities so some mods usually have issues with that, though I'm always open to give mod status when relevant.

I agree. You can always just go for it though, and atleast grab a place holder. Then advertise and hand of the topic to a better qualified team. That's what I did for a lot official gaming discords I set up, but didn't really want to continue moderating.

The world is lacking a space simulation sub in Lemmy.

[โ€“] 314r8 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, the local ones like New Jersey or AITAH, but more importantly AskHistorians, AskScience, badHistory, etc

All this made me realize I only used reddit to not deal with boredom and having to just sit there alone with my thoughts.

Maybe it is time to start taking mindfulness seriously.

Yes! I want someone other than me to start a ZeroCovid group here.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Maybe c/[email protected] would be a good stop.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah there's quite a few niche communities I'd like to have here that aren't around yet, but even if I created them, I don't think we're at a userbase large enough to populate them. They were kinda slow even on Reddit.

/r/dailyprogrammer New challenges on there pretty much came to a halt. It would be great if it could be archived at least. I would browse through the challenges and pick one out.
