Feddit.de was big but I don't see it much anymore. Communities got big in the reddit exodus last year, but you have to keep nurturing them for them to catch on. I'd suggest trying to revive them by posting. Over time they'll start to grow again

As someone else said, feddit.de is dead and has been superseded by feddit.org. The original instance has unfortunately been abandoned by its owner.

The owner should pass the torch rather than let it die.

[–] Pechente 4 points 2 months ago

Absolutely. I don’t know much about the situation but it seems like the owner had some personal issues and just went radio silent on everyone up until someone made the new instance. The whole situation was definitely mishandled
