Quite good, we recently surpassed 600 sub on !lovecraft_mythos@lemmy.world and 900 sub on !scp@lemmy.world. I can't but thanks the other amazing mobs and the users!

!truecomics@midwest.social is almost at 700 subscribers, and is the number 4 community on midwest.social by users/month.

I never heard about Everett True before Lemmy, and I love it.

Honestly not great, though I have mostly lost time and energy to find or make stuff to post that hasn't been already. !linux_video_editing@lemmy.sdf.org and !trans_voice_help@lemmy.blahaj.zone have had some traction and others posting, but a lot of the obvious content to post has been. I'm the only one to have ever posted to !high_quality_gifs@lemmy.sdf.org and that particular thing has nearly burned me out of a hobby. I made it because the community at LW seems to be permanently parked with no reply from the mods. Definitely shouting into the void there.

Sorry to hear! You can maybe try to promote them on !newcommunities@lemmy.world ?

Not great. Sort of lost my will to post after a bunch of experiments over at !actual_discussion@lemmy.ca

If I post pure questions in the weekly thread, generally one or two people respond. Political or not, it doesn't seem to matter.

If I post questions with some opinion added, people respond more frequently to those (even if I do not believe the opinion), but we get scads of aggressive comments and downvotes which buries the thread quickly.

To top that off, if I respond in other threads in Lemmy, I get people digging up the weekly threads (or responses therein) and trying to use those as ammunition against me. It's super disheartening.

Impressive participation from @Dot@feddit.org , especially privileging non LW communities
