!sillydrawingrequests@sopuli.xyz always gets a couple submissions to posts which is nice!
!buyeuropean@feddit.uk is doing ok as well. Haven’t had as much time to look into non-digital products since by now everyone on lemmy knows about the state of digital alternatives.
I love sillydrawingrequests!

I have stolen the idea of posting a weekly thread, as an encouragement for people to participate in the !journaling@sh.itjust.works
What surprises me is that the number of subscribers is constantly growing (330 last time I checked, so more than a hundred people more than when I started posting), but not many are willing to discuss much. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I don’t know what. You’re more than welcome to share your opinion and suggestions ;)
but not many are willing to discuss much
Probably the 90-9-1 rule at work: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1%25_rule
Something Like that, indeed.
Also, it could be because many of the longtime subscribers are not there anymore. I mean, the community was completely inactive for a year or so (and even its creator doesn’t seem to be available anymore). So maybe we’re much less than 330 and more like 100. I can’t tell but I would think so.
That could also be it indeed!
Interesting! This rule is new to me. Pretty curious about the ratio for a platform such as lemmy.
!longreads@sh.itjust.works has picked up 1 regular poster besides me, so that’s nice. Hopefully they stay.
!boardgames@sopuli.xyz has grown a fair bit since it was revived a few weeks ago, and we’re almost at 1k subs! The weekly ‘What did you play this week’ post that you (Blaze) started is proving pretty popular. Sadly while there’s some discussion in comments there, nobody actually posts anything.
!norway@sopuli.xyz has been having challenges. I tried to advertise on the Norwegian-language version of the comm. Didn’t think there was a conflict, since I was trying to focus on English, but the mod deleted my post without any comment. Fine. Now the guy’s downvoting half the posts I make in the comm 🙄. Bit of slow going growing the sub count there.
the mod deleted my post without any comment.
Seems like power tripping. Feel free to report on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
You can also promote your version of the community on !yurop@lemm.ee if not already done
Keeping !android@lemdro.id active as well
Funny thing is, it has an active moderation and administration team, but a lack of active posters. I hope the staff over there find it in them to get more involved, I feel like it can easily become one of the most active communities on Lemmy.
There were quite a lot of issues lately with the server itself. It already is quite more active than !android@lemmy.world, hopefully it keeps on that trend: https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=android&order=active
It’s has decent engagement. It’s a viable community for Android news.
Yeah, I’m definitely, subconsciously, downplaying the activity a bit.
Quite happy with !movies@lemm.ee being more active than !movies@lemmy.world
Trying to keep !AskUSA@discuss.online active
Still keeping !homeimprovement@lemmy.world and !photography@lemmy.world active with weekly threads
To be frank I’ve been a really shitty and sloppy mod. I need to stop being so bloody lazy, and actually promote the communities that I moderate ( !linguistics@mander.xyz, !isekai@ani.social, and !linguistics_humor@sh.itjust.works) better. I know what I need to do (post stuff to keep the community active), but I haven’t been doing it.
3.19K Comments!! You are a super contributor!! You are doing a fantastic job in helping keep lemmy engaging! Certainly not lazy by any metric 😁
Thank you. Your and Blaze’s support make me feel genuinely happier ❤️
Hey, good to see you here, thank you for your instance!
Happy to contribute! But, I admit, I should be putting more effort in growing some communities 😅 Thank you for all the effort you put in as well!
It’s okay to take some time off
I know. However my “time off” has been a bit too long.
I think that I’ll need to make it a daily duty - at least look for content to post in my comms. Specially for !isekai@ani.social, I’ve been neglecting it even harder ;_;
-
GOOD: Someone recommended to me the other day an automated posting aid, which would be an enormous help in my being able to “drip” daily content to my sublemmy via a bot, leaving me space and time to work on longer-form posts.
-
BAD: A week or two ago I realised that Imgur had been dropping my content over a surprisingly short delay period (~six months), breaking likely the majority of older posts. I think I’ll slowly be able to restore at least the lead images, but with something like 400 posts to get to, it’s going to be a PITA, and going to take time, daggit.
-
GOOD: Lemm.ee’s issues with not accepting image uploads (I and others still have no idea why, given that our host admin has pretty much retired from interacting with the users) have been thankfully easing off lately, allowing me to work on stuff like recovering from step 2 and restoring some whole posts here and there.
-
BAD: Restoring multiple images posts is… ugh, going to be a real slog that will probably never get done properly. First, because somehow I seem to have misplaced a certain amount of the original image content, second, because it takes a lot more time than simply restorying a post’s lead image, and third, because lemme.ee only accepts up to 500k images (and bless 'em simply for that!), which unfortunately isn’t always up to displaying full pages properly.
-
GOOD: There have been a few user posts recently, which is always nice to see, and gives me hope that maybe just maybe the sublemmy can be self-sustaining one day. 🙂
-
Still posting to !pokemon@lemm.ee and from time to time to !imaginary@reddthat.com
Really surprised at how well !keeptrack@lemmy.world caught on.
Makes sense due to the current events
The bot for !news_summary@lemmy.dbzer0.com went down for 2 days and didn’t have capability to fix it till this morning. Interactions and votes picked up instantly once it was back tho.
