LemmyLaqueristas: A Nail Polish Community!

222 readers
1 users here now

A place for all lovers of nail polish! All Reddit refugees from r/Redditlaqueristas, r/nails, r/malepolish, and similar communities welcome! I am new to moderating so please bear with me. If anyone with moderating experience would like to help shape this community, please let me know! I would welcome the help! I am just hoping to recreate a similar community to my favorite subreddit.

I thought so too! The name was right there. Welcome!

Haha! Beautiful.

Oh man, I'm really excited to see this here!

Yes! I hope to find more beauty-related content on here, since I really want to leave reddit. But so far all the fediverse alternatives are really heavy on other stuff. feels like a bunch of programmers and linux users on here (which is ok, i am one too), but I really just want to talk about fashion and beauty too!

Reddit was the only place for me to find interesting discussions about things like that without every other post being sponsored or branded content, which is something the internet in general (and social sites specifically) severely lack. I really hope this catches on! :)

THIS. 100%. I need my beauty fix! There’s already more beauty related communities now than 2 weeks ago when I created Lemmylaquerista. Hopefully now that Reddit 3rd party apps have shut down more users will join the fediverse and post content!

Absolutely! Maybe we can have some related communities in the sidebar? I still find it hard to discover new communities on lemmy

[–] Deeordi 1 points 1 year ago

Can do! I’ll work on linking related communities.

You sold the C! I’m so happy this community is here post Reddit gate. I’m trying Lemmy and Discuit, and nail content is definitely a big part of what I’m looking for. 💜

Welcome! There are a couple other fediverse nail communities, but this one definitely has the best name. They are all a bit low on content, we have to build them from the ground up by creating our own content!

I HAD to drop the c as an homage to my favorite subreddit! 😝
