i haven’t and don’t intend to create a community bc i crumble under any tiny level of responsibility but i’ve been commenting on any post i have something to say on, and up/downvoting every post i see depending on the content. i’ve killed hours at work so far lol
Oh no, we have become like bots
It sucks that we have to be like bots. But you know what works? Being like a bot.
The only way to build what we want to build is to roll up our sleeves and get to it.
This is how it starts. These are the early days
Literally me, I’ve been asking questions to get people talking and I’ve also been making content for people to look at and I’ve been commenting all over the place just so i can have discussion
🤣 same
My zillowgonewild clone has a couple hundred subscribers, but so far its been me and like 2 other people posting anything. It’ll happen eventually, though.
I have no idea what actually moderating a community is like, so the limited activity is probably a blessing that I’m too naive to appreciate rn.
I am in the same boat… btw… I created a kitty community : D! https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/cats Join my kitty friend if you would like!!
oo its got cats and cat memes? That’s like my top 6 favorite things.
Lol I feel ya. I started a cocktail community and a succulents community and Im trying to get some engagement happening so I’ll comment on every post and comment and I’ve got a bunch of own posts planned to keep things going. It’s actually kind of fun for now, but I’ve never moderated anything before, so I am a tad worried about what will happen if they outgrow my modding abilities. Until then, I’ll just keep dancing around and promoting the communities 🙃
Succulent community?
I loved that one too! let’s go.
So far I found https://kbin.social/m/houseplants@mander.xyz to have some activity, but I do love me some succulent specific sub.Went to your profile, apparently right now you have a thread inside the “random” magazine. You’d probably want to create your own magazine so that people can suscribe, count me in to volunteer some pics of my babies to get the content going.
I’ll be honest, I don’t entirely know what a magazine is, but I suppose I’ll have to do some research. I know people can find them ok on Midwest social since people have subscribed already. Thanks for the input though, I have a lot to learn. Here’s the link: Here you go: !succulents@midwest.social
Oh yeah, I can suscribe through midwest.social
Link to cocktail community please
Here you go: !cocktails@midwest.social
Thanks. Subbed
