    Can I post a request?

    When I was on TOS (the other site) there was a bunch of active parenting forums. Even down to the specific month and year your child was born. I’ve missed that community with other parents here. Does it exist? I will settle for more general if there’s activity.

    Also any active finance / FIRE communities here?

      !parenting@lemmy.world is pretty active. Doesn’t get a huge amount of discussion threads but when someone starts one they always have plenty of responses.

      Here, you’d barely get enough people to fill a parenting forum.

        I think you would get enough though. Lemmy seems to skew older and and based on what I’ve seen a fair number of people have kids.

        I can think of someone who would probably be game to mod it, but he’s a bit notorious for continuing somewhat silly arguments on occasion…

    Not a specific one, but join your local city/town/state community! There’s lots of cool stuff to learn about your local area, you just have to find it.

    i think lemmy is already the niche community. small comms over here usually turn out to be empty.

    ill let you guys exchange them in peace anyway, maybe some of them get a boost.

      Ya, I think the key is not to focus on niche communities, but more generic communities. e.g., someone mentioned a dead Morrowind community, but it’s probably better to invest in a more generic gaming or maybe even pcgaming community.

      Lemmy just isn’t that big and can’t support many niche communities.

      That being said, I definitely see some niche communities regularly popup in my feed, so there are some active ones!

        lets contribute more to them! a federated model in this world of ours will be much better for us than facebook and twitter and google so id love to nurture some kickass comms in here! id love to see it genuinely replace reddit even with the bad that will come with it too.

        do you like any of the small ones? which ones? i wanted to be actually necessary when posting to one so i havent yet but i want to find the right one i can spam with stuff i love.

          Well, I started watching Star Trek TOS so I would get more of the memes on tenforward@lemmy.world 😅.

          I do like to browse by all instead of subscribed, which is a good way to discover more communities. Of course, I do have to block a lot of communities to avoid stuff I’m not interested in… which is basically just stuff in languages I don’t understand and furries (speaking of niche communities, plenty of those). But I even enjoy seeing local posts from places in another country.

            yeah you use lemmy pretty much the same way i do although im not that into star trek just yet. but im a commie linux nerd so that must count for some lemmy street cred?

            i do browse by all but holy furries, man. i’m looking for a buried comm i can come to sperg out on and ressurrect.

              If you do want to get into it, I suggest starting with Strange New Worlds and Lower Decks.

      That community made me buy Morrowind cause I wanted involved. But the moding tools for openmw suck. Installing mods one by one is something I don’t have the patience for. Maybe I’m just spoiled from prisim launcher for Minecraft

        Fair enough. I myself mainly only mess around with larger mods anyways just to add content. I used to have a bunch of dlc sized mods on my last skyrim playthrough, shit was crazy 😂
