MODERATORS
!india@Piefed.social is still moderated And not on .ml, but smallish because it just moved over there (needed to move over from !india@lemm.ee because of .ee shutdown)
I know about piefed but not posting there since I tried creating an account with piefed and they said that you cannot create account from my ip region.
So kind of no point on having india community on a instance that doesn't allow account from Indian IP address
You should be able to post to !india@piefed.social from your sh.itjust.works account. Have you tried that?
Yes it works but some of the posts on piefed are not appearing on lemmy.ml donno why

If Lenny were less complicated to understand I would!
Arab communities since we're such a small minority. I think the community with the most MAU is !arabs@lemmy.dbzer0.com but its still very small.
!cooking_with_fire@feddit.uk
!recipes@feddit.uk
!runequest_glorantha@feddit.uk
Basically the subs I mod. It would be awesome to see anyone new add content.
if you want to make posts that regularly get over 50 and sometimes over 100 upvotes, start posting to !truecomics@midwest.social. Look here to find new comics to post: https://lemmy.world/post/17836648/12653544
whatis this thing communities, certain online games still has a community on reddit but not lemmy(not the generalized game discussion).
location specific communities, but that doesnt seem to be large here lemmy, and ones that arnt overtaken by conservatives, gatekeeper and astroturfers.

Guitars. Reddit has numerous active, friendly, supportive guitar forums. Lemmy doesn't have a single one.
Guitars@lemmy.world is good. I just asked about fretboard oil yesterday and got like 30 comments.

I wish people shared their projects and hobbies more
I'm a fan of these kinds of games, especially Smash Melee. Since leaving Reddit and Twitter, I feel pretty disconnected from them.
I'm trying to learn Japanese as a hobby, and it's slightly unfortunate that there's not much of a community for it here. I think the first two kinda split the userbase by having slightly different focus, preventing a definitive one spot. The third one is decently active though, mostly thanks to just a handful of people. The effort makes a big difference.
And I wanted to add, in general, I think communities here often work better at higher levels. Like in the examples from my post, smashbros is better than just the ssbm community. fgc, more realistic than communities for individual fighting games. Languagelearning > individual language communities, to an extent.
Since the Lemmy user base is small, I think zooming out is helpful. This place isn't Reddit and it doesn't work to try and replicate it 1-to1.

If anyone is interested in 3D printing, bookbinding, cosplay, crochet, knitting and more⦠This post has links to hobby-related communities:
I used to be a big fan of videogame subs, it doesn't seem like there are many communities here focused on specific games.
Minecraft and rimworld had some great community content.
https://lemmy.world/c/gothindustrial has been resurrected and we are slowly growing. It's not just about music. We include arts, interviews, stories, etc. We are an inclusive community.
I miss the From Software fanbase on reddit. there's a few here but they're spread thin and horribly inactive
The dropout community would be nice to circle jerk with. But I really miss my knock off cheap Chinese fake watch sub. I tried to post to it here but my post got deleted and the sublemmy shut down soon after.

The Yogscast community for one. That's what I sought out here first, and it's dead as the desert.

Nascar. I rarely see posts.
I also would like to see less bots reposting reddit. Like the Formula 1 and PC Master Race ones are just reddit posts.
