I'm genuinely so excited to see some of the more focussed communities blossom on this platform as they have on Reddit over the years. Which are your favourites and which do you think could succeed here?

I dont know if my niche will quite fit the site yet, but I've followed a lot of animal subs ( crestedgecko, aidke, partyparrot, the twenty thousand cat subs... catsbeingcats of course a favorite ) and also a lot of botany style subs ( botany is the obvious one, houseplants, houseplantcirclejerk, savagegarden, mycology ) and then the unusual to pique interest ( unusualvideos, atbge, designdesign, barbarawalters4scale, hmmmgifs )

Special call out to /todayilearned a /awwducational for giving me fun facts to share with my co workers.

I think if there were master communities it would help appeal to a broad crowd.

Looks like there is a todayilearned community !todayilearned@lemmy.ml, but it seems dead at the moment

I just made !awwducational@lemmy.ml to roll up some of my favorite animal subs.
