Just curious. I miss mainly language stuff, some video game communities (like RoN, KCD) and some local communities like for Arabs or Saudis (tbf those were always cesspits but I miss talking to other Arabs on Lemmy)

I’ll try to be the change I want to see. How about you?

    The type of person commenting there ideally wants most eyes to see their work, so I think it could do well even with a small community of commenters, it used to be really fun when it was just everyone giving it a go and not professional authors who are bored.

        Not inactive, just not active active. There’s never anything to moderate, and I’m not prone to doing my writing on lemmy these days. Character limits make it somewhat annoying to fit things in. I favor longer fiction than I used to, particularly back on reddit. Since this account is exclusively for my pen name, and I’m a non entity, there’s not much call to interact with things.

        But I passively use lemmy plenty, and read everything in the community.

        Sounds like a great opportunity to migrate a .world community to a more topical instance as well.

          When I set it up, there was a bit of difficulty finding instances, or I would have picked one that’s less congested. There’s one at literature.cafe that gets some use as well.

          Literature.cafe seems great for what it is so if someone would pick between them i think lc would be 100% the better choice.
