Lemmy is still growing and niche communities will take time to grow. I’ve also advocated for combining communities until a community grows to be too big and could use splitting into smaller, more dedicated communities.

Don’t remember which community we decided to lock and put a permanent stickied post pointing to another community for similar content until that community would become too big and we could reopen the closed community once there was a need for it.

But yeah its tough right now with smaller communities and trying to get the ball rolling. If you haven’t already, join us at !fedigrow@lemm.ee.
