there's no communities for my niche interests!!!
more like "i want a ready-made community where other people already putting effort into posting cool and intersting stuff, and all I want to do is sit on my ass and shower posts generously with """muh upvotes™""""
The problem isn't that they won't create them, there's insufficient biomass to populate them.
If I want to talk about a 5-year-old video game with myself, I'll just open Notepad.
As @Zombiepirate@lemmy.world said in a comment here, we can use general communities to find "biomass needed" to populate small communities
Although I can see the point you are making, and I agree to some extent. I still think it is better to try
I totally agree, and I did try. It was just some kind of soul reposting things from Reddit and me.
Feel free to drop a post on !oldgamers@lemmy.world if you want to talk old games.
!patientgamers@sh.itjust.works has a larger population
Just how much biomass does a subthread really need?
Well, the sub in question had one person copying the articles from Reddit and me commenting on them. That was decidedly too few :)
Philosophically, I think you need enough engagement that there's chat at least a few times a week in the group. Anything less than that and it's closer to a search engine result than a community.
