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…
!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
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!
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 😍
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!
You are a treasure to have on the Fediverse, we are fortunate to have you helping so much:-).
