    little bit like ghost towns

    Welcome to my world! I try to post sports I watch on !sports@beehaw.org as much possible as I can. Same goes for !Football@sopuli.xyz and for !tennis@lemmy.world. Lately is more politics and memes.

    Beehaw being defederated from LW and SJW prevents around 30% of the people on the platform of seeing that community. Have you considered maybe posting to a community on an instance that is more accessible?

    I see !sportsnews@thelemmy.club this !sports@feddit.org and this !sports@lemmy.org The first one looks active, we can post news there.

    Thank you for the list!

    For the first one, the main mod and poster there seems quite active on !conservative@hilariouschaos.com https://thelemmy.club/u/realcaseyrollins@narwhal.city

    Their modlog https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/modlog?userId=157506

    I'm not the biggest fan of feddit.org since https://feddit.org/post/12529640 and https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/44422088

    https://lemmy.org seems to be a one-admin thing, they wanted to sell the domain name for 20k https://lemmy.org/post/90035

    Seems like we might have to start a new community x)

    Look I get what you trying to say, but we need to pick one, and there are not a lot of communities to do that(without making a new one). check this one !Sportsball@lemmings.world but I believe the first one was ok.

    It's just a community in the end, we should leave politics aside on this IMO.

    I had a look at their alt, seems a bit concerning too: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/modlog?userId=14068923

    It's just a community in the end, we should leave politics aside on this IMO.

    Trans athletes in sports are still a regularly discussed topic, it might be better to try to find someone who doesn't have "transphobe" in their modlog (https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/modlog?userId=157506)

    How about we start one on lemmy.ca? Your account is there, and I have an alt there too, so we could both mod from local accounts.

    Or we create a post on !fedigrow@lemmy.zip to see if other people would like to help us too

    It's pretty much a symptom of having a small userbase. The most niche thing that can maintain activity isn't very niche yet. I hope and expect it will improve over time, and in the meanwhile I'd like to see the attitude to Reddit repost bots to soften.
