The whole thing tbh, no one bothers posting, including the mods. Things like news being days and days behind. People posting communites on this thread they want to be more active on here, but the subs are empty. Get posting.
I mainly used the other site for niche microinterests, but because Fedi itself is so niche too, that means the venn diagram doesn't have enough overlap to sustain these communities. And sadly I'm not sure if it ever will.
The community from the old place is pretty active, I wish more of them would flow over here.
I think the top post here has a few hundred upvotes, and the average upvote count is ~20, but people gonna go where they feel they will get the most engagement.
!asian -> Discussion for Asian people and issues. Searching Asian is disappointing since it is just a bunch of NSFW stuff that reinforces colonial stereotypes about Asian women serving white people as sex slaves.
I just went and subscribed to Asian.
Problem is, that it doesn't have any description, no moderators, no rules.
I'm not Asian myself but lived in several Asian countries and I am interested. I don't know if this place is meant for Asian people only or for Asian news or a general interest in Asia or just another place for Asian only fans accounts??
Someone has to take it on and make it a community, a place to hang out and share stuff.
As long as one person is active in the community, it still lives for another day.
