Small communities that are similar should think about mushing together for activity. Example: Hiking, Backpacking, Thru Hiking. It will generate more Activity and then branch out. We have too many niche pages that won’t be active.

    Agree, in the great reddit migration everyone came over and just created communities for everything. Now that the dust has settled we have hundreds of one person communities and so many similar ones.

    Personally I’d like to see the admins go through their communities and say if there is only one member or if the only mods have been dormant to lock the communities and pin a post saying the community is up for adoption. At the very least that’d stop some of the hemorrhaging

      I guess it’s more on the mods of a community to look out for similar communities and engage with potential other moderators.

      I just had a discussion with @livus@kbin.social about !moviesandtv@lemm.ee. I guess other mods should probably do the same.

      Admin are already busy enough, especially wit 0.19 around the corner.

      Also, good to see you around!
