    crazypeople.online has seen slow but steady local growth as well as growth within the communities we host. We have a few regulars in most communities now and new people engaging with the content more regularly. Here’s the rundown:

    Gained ~20 Subscribers
    • !eternalplaylist@crazypeople.online just shy of 200 this week.
    • !weedtime@crazypeople.online exactly the same at 198.
    • !pokemonTCGM@crazypeople.online breaks through 100 subscribers this week.
    Gained ~15 Subscribers
    • !loweffortmemes@crazypeople.online over 130 this week.
    Stagnant Growth
    • !autoracing@crazypeople.online still just over 50.

    A BIG THANKS to everyone across the fediverse who participates in our communities. I don’t want to tag the same few people every week but you’re all awesome for helping turn an empty space into communities with a pulse. 🙏

    We try to offer some low stress retreats from some of the more headline dominated communities. If you haven’t checked us out you definitely should, you might find your new favorite hang out.

        Hey frosty trichs wanted to let you know ive been keeping tabs on your instance love the weedtime community and see you over on trees all the time.

        I’ve been following the changes to !vaporents@lemmy.world recently. Congrats on your recent mod appointment. It’s nice to see the activity picking up over there. Once upon a time I was very active on that subreddit so it’s nice to see it getting some love here. You’re welcome to crosspost to weedtime if you’d like. We probably have a lot of subscriber overlap but it doesn’t hurt to share.

        I might consider joining sometime :)

        Any time mate. It took a lot of work to get our instance to play nicely with l.w because of their size so it wouldn’t hurt my feelings at all to see some of that traffic migrate here lol.

    The various spaceflight communities I’ve been growing (!spacex@sh.itjust.works, !spaceflight@sh.itjust.works, !spaceflightmemes@sh.itjust.works, !rocketlab@lemmy.nz) are chugging along nicely, aided by some posts by @llamacoffee@lemmy.world and @jia_tan@lemmy.blahaj.zone.

    I’ve been able to be a bit more hands-off with !electricvehicles@slrpnk.net and !teslamotors@lemmy.zip, thanks to @Sunshine@lemmy.ca, @sabreW4K3@lazysoci.al, @schizoidman@lemm.ee, and @BrikoX@lemmy.zip. I’ve started crossposting some posts to !byd@lemmy.world, !geely@lemmy.world, !rivian@lemmy.zip, and !xiaomi@lemdro.id to build them up a bit.

    Attempted consolidation of corvid communities to !corvids@sopuli.xyz went… poorly, but hey, you win some, you lose some.

    !cubers@lemmy.world had a few posts in the past week, which was nice.

    I’m still feeding !nosafetysmokingfirst@sh.itjust.works with Reddit content, but a couple weeks ago someone other than me posted one!

    Memes on !leaky_cauldron@diagonlemmy.social seem to be getting quite a bit of traction, though the inactivity of the single admin on that instance is a bit worrying in the long-term… might be soon time to consider relocating.

    !animation@lemm.ee is doing pretty well. We’re close to a thousand subscribers. One thing I’ve noticed is that even on the occasional days where there are no new posts, we’re consistently getting new subscribers. I’m guessing it’s a testament to the staying power of certain posts and also the fact that the community is pretty high up in various animation/anime/cartoon related directories.

    It’s something that’s made me more comfortable with going a day or even multiple days without a new post whereas in the past I would desperately search for anything remotely relevant to post and sometimes find myself a little burnt out because of that. Now, not only are there a decent number of other regular posters but I don’t really freak out too much if I can’t find anything compelling and relevant to post.

    !metaldetecting@lemmy.world is off to a great start with over 60 sub’s, I hope someone else whos into detecting on Lemmy will eventually post occasionally too. For now its just me digging holes in my back yard a few times a week.

    I recently took over !localllama@sh.itjust.works the mods were inactive for years and the pinned post were outdated which started to bug me after months.

    I didn’t like the description was just “were a replacement for the reddit r/localllama community” with same thumbnail and everything. Fuck reddit, our communities aren’t cheap copycats nor should we treat them that way. So I rewrote the description and helped make some new community artwork. People seem to like the new changes which I’m happy about I spent hours editing and colorizing that stupid purple llama picture.

    I also recently became mod of !vaporents@lemmy.world and gave it a similar glowup with new art rewritten description and unpinned years old inactive post.

    I’m not super big into number tracking except for metaldetecting since thats truly my baby. I hope the communities I look after continue to grow at the speed they were meant to.

        I think some low energy crafting and reusing. I have found in recent years Insta etc has made crafts and creative tinkering into a competition for perfection. I like tinkering making etc for relaxation, and not out buying more crap to fill my house. There are still plenty of forums and blogs out there too it’s just tough trawling through all the crap. Plus sometimes it’s good to have a place to just throw out a question. Has anyone tried this? What was the result etc.

    Lemmy doesn’t feel as centered around that stuff, and I don’t think that’s a bad thing.
