Those niche communities you are missing? Recreate them here, and invite people over there to join.
I would if I had the time to get things off the ground and moderate in the beginning. I wouldn’t want to throw up an instance and then just leave it on its own.
I am not sure if my current server allows for instance creation, since I did not prioritise that when choosing it.
Most of those I am missing are also very picture heavy, now that I think about it. Like constant streams of pictures rather than text posts, which might not be the best for lemmy right now? I imagine it would increase load way faster than text posts do.
I will check through the community finder again later and see which topics might have gotten an instance in the mean time. It has been two weeks since I last checked.
