I constantly see super mega niche communities here. To the point that it is completely absurd, like a "memes with black and white pictures, no text and 2 emojis" community would be. What is up with that? Everyone on Lemmy has his own "community" or what is this nonsense?
There are a few very active users who have started up their own favourite thing, and are single handedly posting content to them, breathing life into the subject on lemmy.
I mean sure they exist, but they also have at most 2 posts. I understand that Lemmy is still growing, but god damn does is feel empty compared to what Reddit offered.
But that is the issue: If your have fewer people, you can not split them up over much more communities.
They have next to zero regular posts
They have tons, all by bots. Like just yesterday there were a ton of new communities, all about some game, the bot posted x vs y and then commented while the game was going (what happened in the game).
Oh I see. Better than nothing I guess...?
Splitting the already small community into even smaller pieces is not going to help. These things should be posted in a/the sports related sub, where people are already engaged.
That's true
