I made some interesting discovery but (and it is a big but), BUT where are the animals! Lemmy has so many of them:

[email protected] is actually better than its Reddit counter part

We have [email protected], [email protected] and [email protected] and !cats@addAnyInstance and cute animals at [email protected] and [email protected] and insects at [email protected]. We have a [email protected] and a collection of [email protected] and so much more...
- Thanks for tan eggs! I never knew I needed this! xD
- Self-plug: [email protected], also active, posts don't overlap with [email protected]
  
  Also [email protected], though I don't run that one.
  
  We never got enough bunnies and snakes usually make beautiful pictures!
- Superbowl has some excellent posts, and I’m like not even an owl guy (whatever that means.)
- [email protected] is also fairly active.
  
  Yes... I also love the comics there.
Thanks. I appreciate this kind of post.

All to easy to have a feed full of doom.
- Definitely
I'd like to see more niche communities take off. I want to talk home recording studio, but even if I start it, no one joins.
- Please do! We're slightly more active over at [email protected]
  
  Subbed. I just bought a m audio m- track solo. I'm currently debating using waveform, Cakewalk, or reaper. Maybe I'll make a post
- There is [email protected], maybe you can try to post there to see if people are still interesting? Something as small as "how is everyone doing lately with their home studios" could start a discussion
  
  I recently took over [email protected] too!
  
  Ew, a .ml comm
  
  @[email protected] s recommendation for [email protected] is much better
  
  Let's not grow anymore .ml communities
Saving, to continue returning.

  Well BBQing is traditionally an American thing and it's winter in the northern hemisphere
  
  Guilty.
May I plug my community? [email protected] would love more conversation. No current politics allowed :)
- Feel free! Didn't know about Heinlein, looks like an interesting author!
Thanks, a couple of new subs, and since laughs from Dad jokes, as well as groans from my wife...
Not new but there's [email protected] if you like bikes, ebikes, boards, motorcycles, etc.
Since others shared their own communities, here's my simple one, looking for your stories:

[email protected]

Come by to share what made you happy!
- Thanks for sharing! You might consider [email protected], it's also positive / chill content is is quite active
  
  Already part of it!
Also [email protected], [email protected], and [email protected].
- When you write them with an @ in front, you are referencing a user. A community is a Lemmy concept and you have to prepend them with a !.
  
  Thanks
[email protected] is cool and unique. Not as active lately though.
- Did something happen to the main poster?
  
  Yeah they had to focus on their studies
