    Very good! Since I made the move from Kbin to Lemmy.world I’ve gotten a lot more engagement (more engagement than from before Kbin went down I mean, obviously Kbin has no engagement now). Gotten ~200 subscribers on each of the refounded communities in the past month.

      I have also gone from zero people interacting with my posts to 1–4 upvotes since I stopped screaming into the dead void of kbin.social, unaware it went down since my kbin.run account managed to post the post on the magazine hosted at kbin.social until I tried to advertise it on !newcommunities@lemmy.world (!newcommunities@lemmy.world) and got told about kbin.social going down. Feels good to not be screaming into a void as much.

    It took about a week to get the last 4, but I just checked and I’ve hit 3k subs!

    I think I’ve leveled out. But I’m happy to have gotten this far. I’m still enjoying posting, I have regulars that add a comment or two on most posts. My views are still high.

    Not sure if I’m ready to start incorporating another community into my routine or anything, but I’ll have to see if anything grabs my interest.

      The curse of a lot of niche community-runners on the Fediverse: supplying most of the content ;-;

    I recently acquired !catastrophicfailure@lemmy.world. I don’t think I’ll have much to post there, but as the previous mod was AWOL for almost a year, I hope I’ll at least be a slight improvement.

    As for spaceflight and related communities, !spaceflight@sh.itjust.works, !spacex@sh.itjust.works, !rocketlab@lemmy.nz are chugging along nicely, as launches and news occur. For some inexplicable reason, !spaceflightmemes@sh.itjust.works has more subscribers than !spaceflight@sh.itjust.works, despite having less content.

    Now for the communities I’ve neglected:

    • !avs@futurology.today: Seeing some steady growth, mainly thanks to sabreW4K3.
    • !tesla@lemmy.world: Not too much activity here. Thinking of trying to move the activity off world to !teslamotors@lemmy.zip.
    • !boringcompany@sh.itjust.works: No activity here either.
    • !hellointernet@feddit.uk: The podcast is still on HI-atus, but I managed to round up some Tims to make our mark on the 2024 fediverse canvas.
    • !fedigrow@lemm.ee: Well, I’m commenting here, aren’t I? Thanks, Blaze, for keeping these posts coming.

        Now posts in .world communities do appear, but only if they’re posted people who aren’t also on .world, and the post (as well as all comments on it) are stuck as showing a score of 0.

        Oh crap, wasn’t aware of that! Is there a detailed post available somewhere with graphs and data? There was one a few weeks back when Australian and New Zealand instances were impacted

            Yes, Reddthat too.

            Okay, seems like it’s still the same issue from a while ago. Sorry to hear, but another reason to move off Lemmy.world.

            I had created this post a while ago https://lemmy.world/post/13967373?scrollToComments=true

            Seems like you guys are 2 millions actions behind LW

            https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site?domain=lemmy.world (lagging instances), but Reddthat and Lemmy.nz are doing okay: https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/edf3gjrxxnocgd/federation-health-activities-behind?orgId=1&var-instance=lemmy.world&var-remote_instance=reddthat.com&var-remote_instance=lemmy.nz&var-remote_software=All&from=now-12h&to=now

            Is your admin on the Lemmy Admins Matrix chat? I know the Reddthat and Lemmy.nz admins are there, maybe they can help you out?

      I guess your community isn’t going to be that popular here. People tend to centralize Reddit posts on !reddit@lemmy.world and that’s it

    !noyank!noyank@lemmy.ml just got its biggest post that brought maybe 40 subscribers. ‘complaining’ posts might get more traction than recommendations
