perhaps a lot of Fediverse hobby communities have skilled people and beginners are perhaps too scared to post because they don’t see anyone else just starting
This is a GREAT point IMO, and I think it’s good to never to forget it. Even as smashingly common as it is.
Because ultimately, we’re going to make the Fediverse work because we pay attention to details like this, whereas Reddit is just sort of organised mechanisms at this point, mais non?
P.S. And yes-- I doubt we’re ever going to come close to Reddit (or other pop-mediums) in terms of total userbase and/or pop-engagement, but to me, folks who make sites like this work are preserving a sort of ‘last chance for humanity to stave off corporate ownership.’ Our last chance to deliver a nice little FUCK YOU to late-stage capitalism, if you like.
If people are manage hobby communities, I really suggest to have planned weekly threads where people can share their progress. Might be less scary to beginners.

Sorry for my language, mateys.

Ugh… another tragically late reply, hah.
So, how would such a thing appear to the users? Would it be like an auto-posting bot? Can you point me to a working example of such?
The daily threads in !forumlibre@jlai.lu are created with those.
The account isn’t labelled as a bot, we discussed it with the rest of the people in that community and they were okay with it not being labelled.
We agreed that bots should be labeled when they repost a lot of content.
Scheduled post feel more like a missing feature from Lemmy itself
