!TIFU@lemmy.world

I wish I saw more activity there... I guess I should feel proud of myself that I don't have a good reason to post perhaps?

Edit: also !blender@lemmy.ml and !paleontology@mander.xyz

...and I can't link communities apparently. But those are the ones

If shameless self-promotions are okay:

!source_ports@lemmy.sdf.org - Source ports for retro PC games, that allow them to run on different OSs, and/or with updated "modern" features and quality of life additions
!laserdisc@lemmy.sdf.org - Anything LaserDisc related. I have a huge collection, and love preservation efforts.

I'm always open to right-hand info link exchanges with other similar communities, as well.

Fedidrama is dead :/

Would like to read some.

[–] eezeebee@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago

Maybe not dead, but certainly not ready yet 😔

Have you checked out the following few communities?

!communitypromo@lemmy.ca for new communities to promote themselves as they try to get off the ground.

!newcommunities@lemmy.world for more or less the same, just via Lemmy World.

Also an underrated community that I like to use occasionally:

!lemmy411@lemmy.ca to ask about whether specific communities exist/are around that you may not be having much luck finding (say, due to unique naming or nobody on your instance has joined it so it doesn't appear in search).

Lastly there's my own little community I threw together awhile ago that I'm not sure how to grow where you can ask around for stuff similar to other stuff you're into:

!likethismaylike@lemm.ee

I'd love to see more of this, to find new places.

It's about globalising your mind.

I guess if we’re keeping with the theme of self-promotion: !wholesomeyuri@reddthat.com

I’m like 90% of the posts on that sub and wish I wasn’t. That reminds me: I haven’t posted in a while…
