Trying to build critical mass for small communities

Hi, I’m focusing on generating content for a few communities that I feel can be successful and have less content than I expected:

EDIT: I did not create any of those communities

I would encourage anyone to participate if you like those topics.

Do you know any other niche-but-not-too-niche communities in which we could focus efforts?
Please, don’t post very long lists, I’m already subscribed to almost 300 communities and the idea is to focus on a few ones.

Thanks!

EDIT: Added descriptions for each community.

I had been trying to grow these two:

They were reasonably popular on reddit, 3m+ and 2m+ subscribers respectively. I started posting once per day to each of them soon after I migrated over, though my meme stash has mostly run dry at this point (I do have a bit more to post to anime_irl). There are some regular posters in anime_irl now, but animemes has been pretty dead since I stopped posting. I've also promoted them in the usual places.

There's also my own community, kbin.social/m/specialized_instances / /c/[email protected], for cataloging topic/location focused instances. It works fine as a solo project, but I wouldn't mind having more suggestions of things to add to the list.

!whatisthiscar - Post pictures of spotted cars that you cannot identify.

!oldcars - for classic car enthusiasts

!swimming - self-explanatory

!idiotsincars - also self-explanatory, a bit more active than the others. Submit your dashcam footage here of idiot drivers

I dont own/mod any of these but would like to see more people active in them

Can you explain what these things are? The only one I understand is obviously comic strips. Also, join us at !tinnedseafoodAlso, how do I make that a link?(Thanks!) (Or type italics, bold, or strikethrough here on lemmy?)

Crul OP ,

My bad, you’re right, I should have added a small description (done!):

Lemmy uses Markdown, though not all apps handle the full syntax yet (I know sync struggles with Spoiler and Code for example).
