oh i feel this so hard. i hope the mods are collating their best answers and saving the info to somehow bring over here.

You should send the mods a mail to see if they have any Lemmy plans. It's worth it just to know. Sometimes they don't have a plan but they do know of a good alt community for you to try out

I believe you can just create your own Magazine (sub) if there isn't currently one out there! Start that bad boy up!

Yeah this is fine if you have time to moderate a community or don't care about it being moderated.

For sure, but someone's gotta do it if you want it done, right? I say that, however, not having done it. Fully understand it's easier said that done.

that's a great idea. they must know about the fediverse's existence, but they may not know that Lemmy is actually viable.
