Lol I feel ya. I started a cocktail community and a succulents community and Im trying to get some engagement happening so I'll comment on every post and comment and I've got a bunch of own posts planned to keep things going. It's actually kind of fun for now, but I've never moderated anything before, so I am a tad worried about what will happen if they outgrow my modding abilities. Until then, I'll just keep dancing around and promoting the communities ๐
I am in the same boat... btw... I created a kitty community : D! https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/c/cats Join my kitty friend if you would like!!
oo its got cats and cat memes? That's like my top 6 favorite things.

My zillowgonewild clone has a couple hundred subscribers, but so far its been me and like 2 other people posting anything. It'll happen eventually, though.
I have no idea what actually moderating a community is like, so the limited activity is probably a blessing that I'm too naive to appreciate rn.
This is how it starts. These are the early days
Yeah! That's what's so exciting
I've been following this: https://botsin.space/@threadcount
and it's been incredible to see the growth.
Literally me, I've been asking questions to get people talking and I've also been making content for people to look at and I've been commenting all over the place just so i can have discussion
whats your community?
sidenote: I thought I would be able to easily tell by clicking people's profiles, but apparently not all fediverse sites show the places you mod on your profile? the mysteries of the fediverse continue for me
It's not the community I'm Moderating but I've been asking questions on AskKbin, Deltarune, Omori and History and those posts are aimed to get more discussion
The Community i own tho is a subreddit for Arts, Writing, Photography, Music and Engineering which is CreateCord(i think it's on Kbin social) and it has no members yet but I'm getting people to join it and then I'll have a discussion with them over there
I'm just having fun chatting with people.
I'll join for
i haven't and don't intend to create a community bc i crumble under any tiny level of responsibility but i've been commenting on any post i have something to say on, and up/downvoting every post i see depending on the content. i've killed hours at work so far lol
mood
Same boat! Except mine is nsfw ๐คจ (!animemidriff@lemmynsfw.com)
Someone had to do it. I hope people make the other ones I miss, or I might have to do it myself
Hey I remember that community! I came across it the other day when I was doing โ
... research.
Don't forget to comment, like, and boost from your Mastodon account as well.
I don't even have a mastadon account so I guess thats a whole pile of potential I can explore
