Kind of a companion thread to the recent one on [email protected] asking people which community there were missing.

I had a quick look, and most of those seem to be niches that can’t be filled until we reach a higher population.

There is still maybe some potential improvement about some less well-known community that other people are interested in and that could some additional activity.

I try to help to make less known communities known with the regular threads on [email protected] (now moving to [email protected] ), but there is probably only a level of detail we have to stop at with 47k monthly active users.

One example is [email protected], it seems reasonable active, and is probably a better compromise than having each game having its own community.

Similar with [email protected], or [email protected]. I posted a thread about Ted Lasso a few days ago, it got some nice comments, but probably not enough to have a full fledged dedicated community.

    Post about your favorite TV show in a tv/movies community, don’t make a new one just for your show.

    I agree, but I also don’t want to spam those communities lol.

    Like [email protected] or [email protected] would be too much spam for one of the gaming communities, or patient gamers.

    And it’d be even more spammy for the communities that are in-between in specificity (like [email protected] or [email protected])

    I just do rare cross-posts for the most notable posts

      Oh yeah, if you can sustain those communities by yourself, that’s great! This advice is more for people who don’t know where to post about a specific topic
