What are your favorite communities which are NOT about politics or news?
Can maybe help due to the recent events
Until now !superbowl@lemmy.world has been my source of uplifting content of last resort. Sadly I have woken up to the realization that owl pictures might not be enough going forwards. Appreciate the thread.
It was hard to post today, but I told myself that I still wanted to try to give you guys what I could, so I put up some of the best I had in my stash of posts.
I try to keep politics out of it, but as I focus on habitat preservation and animal protections, it's hard to stay totally out of it.
I do have stuff ready to start Owl of the Year. I was going to do a preliminary round this week, but I'm going to let people deal with their emotions for a couple days, I think.
To anyone feeling nervous by the results, know I care about of all you guys, and most of the people I love are potentially affected as well. Anyone who cares about nature is always welcome to come and enjoy the owls with me.
Not to self promote my own community too much, but !astrophotography@lemmy.world if you wanna see amateur photos of space

Communities where there is an actual community interested in a topic and people are posting mostly OC.
I think !birding@lemmy.world is my favorite community. It is positive, mostly OC, somewhat active and about a topic i am also interested in.
Thanks for sharing!
We are here for you at !cocktails@lemmy.world if you would like to drown your sorrows in something delicious.
Nice one!
Funny Illustrations (sorry, no idea where to put them):
(I would love to find a Bill Watterson one, if anyone knows. I own all his Calvin & Hobbes albums, it would just be for the pure joy of regularly see one popup on my screen :))
Nature is often odd & that's great:

Thx!

First time I hear about it, thanks for sharing
Good timing, SDV 1.6 just came to consoles, mobile, etc. yesterday. Come join us.
You probably have to find out what your hobbies and interests are and search / ask accordingly. And if you miss something, be the change you want to see and create new communities.
I personally avoid politics as much as possible, and found some great communities. Most prominently !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world, !memes@lemmy.ml and !196@lemmy.blahaj.zone.
Edit: Oh. This wasn't a question you asked, but rather a list of these communities, my bad. My advice still stands though.
Feel free to link them, it makes it easier for other people to join!
And indeed, people should search for their interests, but discoverability can be an issue, which is why we have this community and this kind of posts
needs more active users ☞ !stick@sh.itjust.works

Really like that one. Yeah there are more communities that i really like but they hardly have any activity:
!camping@sh.itjust.works
!pizza@lemmy.world
!desire_paths@sh.itjust.works
!raining@sh.itjust.works!desire_paths@sh.itjust.works
!raining@sh.itjust.worksi remember posting on desirePaths and i'm subscribed to raining. I will try to post on that one too
Don't forget !homevideo@feddit.uk
Very good point, added

No such thing. All society is political.
How are !houseplants@mander.xyz political?
People are forced to keep their plants indoors because housing instability and HOAs make outdoor plants illegal or infeasible. Anarchists grow houseplants by proplifting, a form of piracy where they take plant cuttings from garden stores and grow them. Corporations say that proplifting is stealing, and that it harms businesses. Anarchists say that life should be free.
TraditionalArt is fun
Also don't want to self-promote, (but if I did, it would go a little something like this)
!loweffortmemes@walledgarden.xyz
EDIT: wait a bit for it to cool down from election first
EDIT2: Nah don't go on it mod is political

Some of these communities are more active than others, so if you do find them interesting/valuable please post.
Hello
Thank you for your posts, FYI !Links can be used by everyone: !climatehope@lemmy.world
Edit: also, with the amount of communities on the same subject, wouldn't it make sense to gather people on one or two rather than ten?
Edit2: kbin.social has been down/unstable for a while now
Sure, but that's not my decision to make. The ask was for other communities that are not politics focused. If people want to gather in one of those over another, that's their choice not mine. I just listed some I'm aware of, that's all.
