Not sure if this would be something anyone else would be interested in, but could you add stuff for cosplay? That's usually where my craft energy ends up XD

First of all apologies for the late reply, your comment was a casualty of the .world federation issue and I didn't stumble across it until now!

I've had a look around for cosplay groups, found a few Lemmy communities but only one with any posts whatsoever so I've added that one, and there's also a fledgling Kbin magazine too. For now I expect it's worth cross-posting to both just to see which one gets the action! :)

p.s. also just for everyone in general - yes I know the latest Lemmy update means we don't need the local links anymore, but I've left them as-is because I'm not sure if all the apps have caught up yet.
