On my side
Still pretty alone posting on
A few people started joining me on
- [email protected]
- [email protected]
- [email protected]
- [email protected]

- [email protected]
Planning to start posting to [email protected], even without having kids.
The most successful is still [email protected], with 3 active contributors, we are doing quite well.
It’s okay, the others are slowly growing.
You’ll want to ping my main most of the time. My account on ani.social is an alt in order for me to be able to create some communities there.
But my actual everyday use account is on sopuli.xyz, as sopuli is geographically relevant to me as a finnish citizen.
Ah indeed, I thought I pinged the sopuli one, miss clicked
It’s mostly me posting on Animorphs, but people are slowly joining and every now and then someone throws up a comment.
I don’t mind starting from nothing. I like putting content up and just having it there, knowing that on the off chance anybody looks it up, there’s going to be a whole bunch of content for them to swipe through.
And that I contributed a little bit to /all.
Gives me a good opportunity to reread the series also.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
Thanks for sharing, I didn’t know about it!
Link: [email protected]
Does the link in my post not show up on other instances unless I type it that way?
I still don’t understand formatting very well.
Your link is directly to your instance, the one I used (with the ! in front) redirects to the instance of the reader
So users on other instances can’t use the link in my post? Or they can’t see the link?
I thought any community only exists on a single instance that other instances can view and access, do you mean every community is copied to all the other instances?
They can use it, but wouldn’t be able to interact with it as it wouldn’t be their instance.

Every community is copied to all the other instances
For instance my instance version of your community: https://reddthat.com/c/[email protected]
That’s very interesting, thank you for explaining that.
I keep thinking I understand how basic federation works, and then something like this crops up haha.
So if they click on my link, they’ll be able to view it but not interact with it because it isn’t on their instance?
And each time a change is made in the animorphs community on any instance, that’s reflected to all animorphs communities on all instances?
It sounds like nodes of a crypto.
Then there can only be one animorphs community named “animorphs” and any other community would have to have a slightly different name?

I’m alone at:
There’s some activity over at [email protected]. During college football season it should be busy enough there.
If you combine all of the various dad-based groups (there’s several), the activity is somewhat there as well.
Would you be interested in coming over to [email protected]? Now with football season starting the instance is going to be one of my main focal points to work on the new Fediverser features.
Sure, we can give that a try!
I made a meta post at [email protected] to direct people over to nfl.community.
If you combine all of the various dad-based groups (there’s several), there activity is somewhat there as well.
Do you think there should be some consolidation on that side?
Yeah. I think most of them have inactive mods, which makes it tough. But having 5+ dad groups probably isn’t conducive to engagement at this stage.
Would you like to create a dedicated thread here, in [email protected] ? Might be easier to have all the context (all the communities, how long have their mods been inactive, etc) in one thread, that could then be shared to the different existing communities to explain the rationale behind it.
I can do that. Should be able to put that together later today.
Edit: done.
Thanks!
I run a lot of stuff, but I’ve automated away a lot of the tedium (though I still author every post) for my “moe” communities.
Means I’ve had more time to post to [email protected] again, which is active even without me now, and steadily growing.
Thinking of setting up a community for BallisticNG as I’ve seen it mentioned in comments several times now, indicating there are players afoot. Might be fun to organize some tournaments.
To anyone running communities in which fanart posts are common, I run a saucebot at @[email protected], which needs to be whitelisted for any communities in which it might be useful.
It’s a string of my own posts at [email protected], even though we are on week of the finals and the Celtics are close to winning their first ring since 2008.
Seems that as usual most of the activity is happening on a LW community: [email protected]
No, the LW one is even more dead. No posts for almost an year.
There is a post from 5 days ago with 21 upvotes and 7 comments
Yeah, you are right. Looks like no one was subscribed from my instance, so it is not getting updated. If I go there directly, there are more posts.
It’s still kind of lonely at [email protected] …… almost doubled the number of subscribers since I started posting, but it’s mostly lurkers.
Interesting, seems a quite niche topic!
Are there maybe other barbecue communities around where you could post content too, and having people with other barbecue brands joining?
Didn’t see any
There’s one with a more general title but no activity in a year https://lemmy.world/c/pelletgrills
Edit: ohhhhhhhh, “bbq” is something it never occurred to me to look for. That does exist and has activity!
