Is it better to find a niche or to create a community of sorts and how do both work exactly, so i created my account not to long ago and most places feel dead in a way but if i created my own place its not like i would get many people and i have some ideas but there kinda dumb or "Spicey" to say or somehting like that. im not even sure if i have the motivation to create and manage a community.

Look around to see if theres a community that already fills that niche. If there is, join it. If not, make it. If it doesn't get any traction you can just wipe it out.

ive looked for certain things and there are many things missing that would be interesting to add, so maybe ill add something...?

Go for it! Lemmy is very young compared to reddit, so lots of communities will be nonexistent til someone makes them.
