Started posted to !mechanical_keyboards@programming.dev recently, let's see how it goes

Not so great, to be honest. Probably gonna shut down !chip_stocks@discuss.tchncs.de soon. I guess there's not much interest in semiconductors and capitalism in general.

No worries though. I might start doing gaming content on Peertube or something.

First time I hear about it, have you promoted it on !communitypromo@lemmy.ca and !hardware@lemmy.world ?

No, I might give that a try. Thanks.

Make sure you add it the federation bot!

https://lemmy-federate.com/

It will put your community on all of the other instances, giving you the best user base possible

I'll check it out.

It made me happy to see several of the transplanted communities on !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl today. It's also awesome to see @tcbot@feddit.nl back in action again. Shoutout @andrew@pythag.net for maintaining it for all of us. Thank you!

I'm loving the activity over there! Looks like we may have found a mod too.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Good success for !buyeuropean@feddit.uk. The mod of !buyfromeu@feddit.org shouldn't be back before the 14 days of activity, the consolidation of the communities can be discussed

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Good luck with the consolidation! My vote would be towards feddit.org :)

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Let's see! Why feddit.org, if I may ask? 😄

[–] threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Eh, it just seems amusing to have a European-focused community on an instance which is neither in the EU nor on "the continent" :)

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

US communities like !news@lemmy.world and !politics@lemmy.world are hosted on a European instance, nobody seems to care too much 😄

Also feddit.org already hosts !europe@feddit.org , having this community on another instance isn't too bad decentralization wise 😄

Good points. I'm sure either would be fine! My preference is not a strong one, and my opinion is irrelevant anyway :)

Same old same old. Have recently started posting meta posts that might turn into weekly posts. Curious to see their reception. Engagement seems to largely be luck and time based lol. Though I've seen a couple more people posting apart from myself which is nice

[–] Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago

That's nice!
