It’s tough to restart a community from scratch and I was wondering what was your thought process.
If there’s one already on another instance, I would join that. Start a new magazine/community only if you can’t find one at this stage.
Alternatively, if the community can start under a related and bigger community, you can do that as well. Then branch out when you get some critical mass.
I sent a message to the owner of /m/hardware to start the fire. He has no comment in 3 weeks of inactivity after he created the magazine, I guess I can wait for a long time.
There’s already some big communities. I abandoned my PS5 magazine after finding a much bigger one
I’ve been trying to be active in existing magazines right now. I don’t want to be in charge of anything but love to post and comment. I’m trying to focus on supporting the largest one to try to drive niche interest into a single magazine
