Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Im hoping we get a lot more instances for various niches. Id love ones for particular niche fandoms, like Metroidvanias, or PC gaming, or particular entertainment genres, or animal gifs, that break down into further communities. For example, an pop-nerdy entertainment one could have c/startrek, c/marvel, c/starwars, etc, and only focus on that kind of content.
I dont think one particular instance like Beehaw should have anything more than what the default subs do on reddit
You know what? I'd not even thought of having a seperate instance for stuff like that. I may need to take a look in to how much it would cost and what the moderation effort would be like.
Beehaw posted their financials, not too expensive. As for moderation, you'll be the admin of your little instance, but you can allow others to mod communities on it. Still considering setting up one instance for my interests (many of them, probably most of them, don't have communities today in all of Lemmy), but I'm already on call at work and the idea of having to moderate something gives me pause...
