      Music theory and conlangs. There are several conlang communities - but they're all on life support (or worse).

        When I first stumbled into Lemmy I kinda gravitated to the medical communities, but from day one they've all been pretty dead. Just added a couple more subs now prompted by this thread to see if there was an active one. Here's what I've got in my collection:

        [email protected]

        [email protected]

        ...sorted all of them by Top: Month, and there are a grand total of maybe 20 posts spread over only three of the communities. One of those three only showed a single post; and a pretty even split on the remaining two. The rest of them were empty. It's spread way too thin: I've only run into a few other medical peeps here on Lemmy - we don't have 12 communities worth of material.

        I kinda wish we'd merge them... which I know goes against the grain of how the fediverse is supposed to operate.

        [email protected] and [email protected] were the two most active ones. Mander.xyz seems like a better home for medical talk, but the rules in the sidebar are far too strict for a community this size. [email protected] seems the best at the moment.

        ...and I'm 100% part of the problem I'm whining about. Outside of a couple introduction posts and questions for the community, I haven't posted anything there either. I should.

        most of them are on reddit, and probably unaware that lemmy exists, plus there are still medical based forums out there too. probably hard to see out of the 50k users, which one will ask a medical based issue.

          This is great! I think the ones that get more subs will generally rise to the top and people will start congregating there.

          I'm seeing a bunch of upvotes on peoples comments here. I'm hoping that those people are also subbing to the communities they see in here.

          I'm gonna try to remember to post this kind of question maybe once a month and over time we'll get communities popping off.

            Liberal gun owners. (Don't know how to link properly.)

            https://old.lemmy.world/c/liberalgunowners

            Such a great reddit community, or used to be. No toxic right-wing shit, just people showing off their builds and buys, asking questions, getting solid advice with no bullshit, talking laws and legal repercussions, linking timely news, loads of trans people posting. No judging! A new person could come in with the same damned question we'd covered 500 times. No problem! We'd all jump in and help.

            Fuck I miss that place. It's dead here. Also, I think there are a few people that go in there solely to downvote. Don't know how to check logs, not interested enough to try, but it looks like assholes are trying to spoil it.

            And FFS, NOW is the time left-minded Americans should be getting armed! Blacks, LGBTs and women have been the largest gun buying demographic for several years. They need help and they need a judgement free space to get it.

            the sub probably blocks trolls. or deletes or bans them from the sub. alot of subs tend not to do it, so declines alot, hence the right wing push as the site as a whole. or it becomes too overzealous in moderation.

              whatis this thing communities, certain online games still has a community on reddit but not lemmy(not the generalized game discussion).

              location specific communities, but that doesnt seem to be large here lemmy, and ones that arnt overtaken by conservatives, gatekeeper and astroturfers.

              I suspect there are a decent amount of people from major cities on here. If you start one of these asklemmy threads saying 'hey any people from tokyo here' and then in the text field just out a tokyo specific community address in there and say let's congregate here. You'll prolly get 20 people. This community has 11k MAU which is large enough to get a lil something going I'd think.

                I suspect most people aren't subbing/following communities on Lemmy. So post the community or topic you want to see pop off. And reader(that's you) if you are interested in that community click the link and follow it.

                Nascar. I rarely see posts.

                I also would like to see less bots reposting reddit. Like the Formula 1 and PC Master Race ones are just reddit posts.

                  CONstructed LANGuages. Languages built/created by a person or team of people, as opposed to a language that evolves naturally. Some famous conlangs are Esperanto, Toki Pona and Klingon.

                        Lemmy already superseded my expectations with how active it is. That being said, I would love the following to see more action (although I'm mostly lurking there myself):

                        [email protected] - Loved the discussions on Reddit. As a European, it's not easy to follow the games, so that was a great way to stay up to date.

                        [email protected] - Mostly carried by /u/[email protected], whose updates are *chef's kiss*

                        [email protected] - No explanation needed.

                                I know with lemmy.world you can ask the instance admins to become a mod of that sub, if you want you could try to do that. Or create a sub on your own instance

                                      [email protected] is still moderated And not on .ml, but smallish because it just moved over there (needed to move over from [email protected] because of .ee shutdown)

                                        I'm not aware of any NYC communities, even inactive ones, on the fediverse, though I haven't looked very hard. That link you provided errors out, if it's supposed to work.

                                        [email protected] is probably the best bet

                                        voxpop.social has shutdown

                                          I suspect most people aren't subbing/following communities on Lemmy. So post the community or topic you want to see pop off. And reader(that's you) if you are interested in that community click the link and follow it.

                                          [email protected] is basically dead, though I am as guilty anyone of not posting more.

                                          [email protected] has seen some posts lately but I wish it was more active.

                                          [email protected] for motorsports.
