I have been on the edge with twitter and reddit for a while and I have finally deleted my accounts that I have had for a very long time there. They are no longer the places I used to know, even more so with twitter. I am ready for my new time here and on mastodon.

Hello Lemmy

    First time poster. I’m on lemmy.world but found not many of my channels like I have on Reddit. How you all find your niche subs that are bigger than 30 people?

      Gotta post content and engage with the small communities to help them grow I guess. Since I’ve started a few weeks ago I’ve seen new communities spring up everywhere. Hopefully in time whatever you are missing will come to Lemmy.

      The two things that worked for me are:

      • Start with Lemmy Explorer (https://lemmyverse.net/) and look for communities you’re interested in, and subscribe to them (it helps if you hit the little house icon and tell it what your home instance is)
      • Sort posts by “all” and look for ones that seem interesting, then look at the community those are posted in and subscribe.

      Do that for a bit, then you can sort by “subscribed.”

      Seems to be a workable strategy.
