Many communities exist, but mostly on paper.

What I haven't found yet is something substantial and informative like /r/askhistorians.

Be the change you want to see. I noticed that every time I post even a small thing on those empty communities, people come and contribute.

It’s mostly an empty dancefloor issue, nobody wants to be the first

The other day I linked an interesting perspective on AI on !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world , hopefully those kind of exchanges happen more and more

Well, you’ve encouraged me to make a comment! And given me a great community to watch Lemmy grow!

That's great, happy I could help!
