Yeah, sorry about the run-on sentence title, but I hope you get what I'm saying

I'm a huge sci-fi fan and love the idea of a sci-fi server with communities for books, tv shows, etc to rehouse places like r/scifi, r/TheExpanse and r/SiloSeries. But as dev as I am I don't fancy running a server and being a super mod.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Sorta, Got a bunch of the more niche communities I was in made, with only two exceptions. I believe in being the change I want made, but I"m hardly experienced as a moderator so it's a new adjustment. They're also existing communities so some mods usually have issues with that, though I'm always open to give mod status when relevant.

The world is lacking a space simulation sub in Lemmy.

/c/TitleGore

But really though, are you asking if anyone has any communities they want to make so you can moderate them? Iโ€™m so confused

Maybe c/[email protected] would be a good stop.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I agree. You can always just go for it though, and atleast grab a place holder. Then advertise and hand of the topic to a better qualified team. That's what I did for a lot official gaming discords I set up, but didn't really want to continue moderating.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah there's quite a few niche communities I'd like to have here that aren't around yet, but even if I created them, I don't think we're at a userbase large enough to populate them. They were kinda slow even on Reddit.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Hoping a small business sub pops up soon. I learn so much from that one on reddit

You are just describing all of us lurkers and occasional commenters

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

Yeah, the local ones like New Jersey or AITAH, but more importantly AskHistorians, AskScience, badHistory, etc

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

yeah absolutely

badly need one for valorant/competitive valorant

I've been trying to find an alternative to r/AskPsychology anywhere online because I've been trying to find statistics on how likely people with NPD and ASPD are to be abusive and be abused compared to the general population and have had no luck. Asking on places like Quora just results in dipshits and grifters screeching about how people with personality disorders are actual demons from literal hell (and in the latter case, shilling their blog, books, and webinars). ~Cherri

Well, if you start one I'd join.
