Is this a thread for recommending communities that aren’t politics, news, memes, or tech? If so, here’s some comic-related communities:
- !outofcontextcomics@lemmy.world
- !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee
- !smbc@midwest.social
- !oglaf@midwest.social (generally NSFW!)
- !peanuts@midwest.social
And a few other miscellaneous communities:
Indeed, that’s the spirit, thanks for the links!
dropping an Oglaf link without a warning is gonna make for a fun time on public transit
Good call, edited to add a warning
Thanks. I appreciate this kind of post.
All to easy to have a feed full of doom.
Definitely
I made some interesting discovery but (and it is a big but), BUT where are the animals! Lemmy has so many of them:
!superbowl@lemmy.world is actually better than its Reddit counter part
We have !bats@lemmy.world, !opossums@lemmy.world and !pets@lemmy.sdf.org and !cats@addAnyInstance and cute animals at !aww@lemmy.world and !aww@lemmy.ml and insects at !awwnverts@lemmy.world. We have a !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org and a collection of !taneggs@lemmy.ca and so much more…
Superbowl has some excellent posts, and I’m like not even an owl guy (whatever that means.)
Self-plug: !bunnies@lemmy.world, also active, posts don’t overlap with !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org
Also !snakes@lemmy.world, though I don’t run that one.
We never got enough bunnies and snakes usually make beautiful pictures!
!crows@lemmy.ml is also fairly active.
Yes… I also love the comics there.
Both !dogs@lemmy.world and !birding@lemmy.world are pretty active.
Thank you so much for !birding@lemmy.world
And thank you for the pets and bun_alert_system!
Thanks for tan eggs! I never knew I needed this! xD
I’d like to see more niche communities take off. I want to talk home recording studio, but even if I start it, no one joins.
Please do! We’re slightly more active over at !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works
Subbed. I just bought a m audio m- track solo. I’m currently debating using waveform, Cakewalk, or reaper. Maybe I’ll make a post
Go for it!
Also… Reaper.
There is !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works, maybe you can try to post there to see if people are still interesting? Something as small as “how is everyone doing lately with their home studios” could start a discussion
I recently took over !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works too!
Ah, that’s promising!
Ew, a .ml comm
@can@sh.itjust.works s recommendation for !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works is much better
Let’s not grow anymore .ml communities
Yes, I share the feeling. For some reason the SJW community was not showing up in lemmyverse.net
movies/tv:
communities:
- !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl - find active communities
- !communities@ponder.cat - find (usually) active communities
other:
- !unix_surrealism@lemmy.sdf.org - a series of comic strips/panels. a fediverse original
- !cyberpunk@lemmy.zip - mostly about games and movies
Saving, to continue returning.
U can’t see me
My cute puppy: !sophie@piefed.social
May I plug my community? !The_Heinlein_Society@lemmy.world would love more conversation. No current politics allowed :)
Feel free! Didn’t know about Heinlein, looks like an interesting author!
Thanks, a couple of new subs, and since laughs from Dad jokes, as well as groans from my wife…
When you write them with an @ in front, you are referencing a user. A community is a Lemmy concept and you have to prepend them with a !.
Thanks
The desire paths one 😍
Wasn’t the last post 4 months ago?
Guilty.
No worries, hopefully BBQ enthusiasts will see this post.
If there aren’t enough, you can always cross-post your next post to !cooking@lemmy.world
Well BBQing is traditionally an American thing and it’s winter in the northern hemisphere
Time to find some Australian BBQers!
Since others shared their own communities, here’s my simple one, looking for your stories:
Come by to share what made you happy!
Thanks for sharing! You might consider !casualconversation@lemm.ee, it’s also positive / chill content is is quite active
Already part of it!
!truecomics@midwest.social is cool and unique. Not as active lately though.
Did something happen to the main poster?
Yeah they had to focus on their studies
You are a treasure to have on the Fediverse, we are fortunate to have you helping so much:-).
