[email protected] is slowly growing and currently at 71 subscribers 🎉 I’ve started promoting it a little bit on Mastodon and Bluesky as well
Well done!
Pleased that [email protected] gained what looks like another active participant :)
Lots of downvotes on a recent post on [email protected] that regular commenters engaged with happily, so I’m wondering if it’s just people seeing it on local and disliking it as typical mainstream social media fodder, or if it’s subscribers who don’t comment not liking it, or both. Remember all those “which pill would you take” and then there’s a couple different-color pills giving you different superpowers? It was something like that, but on-topic for otome games. Kind of bewildered by that.
Have looked at other Fedi instances including Mbin for backups, didn’t find one that was just centered on games. Guess it’ll probably be lemmy.zip.
As somebody that mods other communities on ani.social, lemmy has a sizeable portion of its userbase that browses by All rather than by Subscribed. Lemmy also has a sizeable portion of users that are extremely hostile to anything anime or anime-adjacent (just see the lemmy.ml defederation drama from last year for example). So, random downvotes on active posts happen a lot since each new comment pushes that post to the top of the feed when sorted by Active. The important part is the engagement from your community members. One person commenting is worth >100 random up/down votes for keeping a community going.
Doing ok on [email protected] and [email protected]
Trying to help with [email protected]
Good to see the other post about the centralization fir EV communities, well done @[email protected]
Yesterday was a bit of a dumpster fire for all the communities on walledgarden.xyz with some server balancing that went quite poorly if I’m honest. I’ll make a detailed post about it when I’m less annoyed and more confident things are squared away.
Things are back to normal so far today and [email protected] members are already hard at work sharing some awesome tracks.
[email protected] has also seen some new activities that have been great to see.
[email protected] is active in bursts but it’s our little home for shitposting and being goofy.

Sorry to hear
It is what it is. Not my favorite things to deal with but it’s part of the experience. Unfortunately now that I’m expanding the instance it impacts more than just me. Sorry to anyone who’s had to put up with it!
Someone else finally posted at [email protected] , so that was encouraging.
We celebrated a one year birthday for both [email protected] and [email protected]. Over the past year we have grown from nothing to being (in my biased opinion), the best place on the fediverse to discuss anime and manga. It has been a lot of work, but they are both active enough now that I can do something like go on vacation for a couple days and they will keep going in my absence (including other mods that will manage things).
I made a series of birthday-themed anime clips to celebrate. If you are interested, here they are:
- Will You Come to My Birthday Party? - Gundam Wing (post on ani.social)
- Celebrating a Birthday with Yunyun - Konosuba (post on ani.social)
- Exchanging Birthday Presents - Azumanga Daioh (post on ani.social)
- Surprise! Happy Birthday! Let’s Have Some Cake - Nichijou (post on ani.social)
- Bonus - Backup Cake - Nichijou
Awesome! Themed instances are so important for the Fediverse. I wish you all the best :)
Main hardware community is doing good, with solid growth in subscribers and some organic engagement.
Child communities (Laptops, Gaming Laptops, Monitors) are seeing much slower growth and very weak engagement. But that’s to be expected. It helps that supporting them works in parallel to the main hardware community.
Well done for your main community !
I was originally planning to start the 2nd annual SuperbOwl Owl of the Year event on Election Day, and I’m glad I decided not to do that!
I started it on Saturday instead to give people time to cool off a bit, and one the plus side, I’ve seen a few users I haven’t heard from in a while chime in again, but the initial response has gotten almost 10% downvotes, which I find pretty shocking. It was a big success last year and really raised the sub numbers, and even if you dont care about the “competition” you still get the same pics you would anyway.
A bit disappointed overall due to having dipped about 20 places on the active community list. I feel likes are still trending downward, and comments were feeling lower as well. I’m hoping it’s just election stress taking up everyone’s energy for social media and we’ll bounce back soon. I still try to be a place people can come for a smile, so it’s a bit sad if people aren’t doing that.
Still chugging along with [email protected], really happy with how much community engagement some posts are getting, it’s starting to open up interesting and complex discussions.
Well done!
Has the instance admin considered getting another admin as backup?
Not yet that I know of, but I did finally appoint some other mods for the com. So it’s not just reliant on myself.
@[email protected] and @[email protected] , are you aware you won’t get federated reports from a remote account?
That’s a shame… if it’s set for an upcoming milestone then probably it’s not an urgent problem, but that will undo a lot of the usefulness I can do in the meantime, yes.
Maybe open an alt on quokk.au?
I wouldn’t check it, though. If I were going to go that route, I would just transfer my whole account over. I think just waiting until the fix gets implemented is the way to go.
It is planned for 0.20, so might take a bit of time
Well done!
Hi, out of interest i tried looking up quokk.au on lemmyverse.net. Just to get the basic stats of the server, and theres usually a description of the admins intent for the server.
But Quokk.au doesn’t show up, would you know why that is?
It’s showing up for me?
What’s odd is that it doesn’t show the Fediseer guarantor.
Well thats interesting. I just tried it again, and now it shows up.
I have been posting tons of articles on [email protected] to grow the community and we rapidly gained 40 new subscribers within 3 days. Then once we have enough people making original content such as writing about their personal experiences then will I slow down on the articles.
I’m trying to make it the largest vegan community on Lemmy so we can have the discussion on a server owned by vegans.
Well done, and good luck!
I’ve noticed a lot of your posts recently and have been subscribed since. Glad to see more people pushing out vegan communities.
