The thing is, what exactly would you want from a czech-specific community? I mean "my" German one is decidedly not dead, but I see no reason to participate because I just don't care about "Germany" as a concept that much. It's the actual topics that interest me, and there it doesn't matter where someone is from.

You probably don't get the purpose of the community. At feddit.de, you have no shortage of communities from [email protected] to [email protected], but similarly to Czech subreddits, we only have two, separated by language:

So [email protected] is not exclusively about the state. It is supposed to be an alternative to r/czech, discussing anything “Czechs” might be interested in, as opposed to broader audiences like [email protected]. This is purposefully vague and highly inclusive.

I would suggest you to consider joining/posting if you meet at least one of the conditions:

  • Czech speaker, any level
  • culturally Czech
  • has been / plans to go to the Czech Republic
  • interested in anything about our country, culture or life
  • have content/question that people who meet the above criteria might want to respond to/answer, as opposed to people in or other broader communities
  • if you read this far, you 100% qualify

If you're still unsure, look at some posts at r/czech, not necessarily top ones, and see what fits. There is a large gray area, for example this map is unlikely to classify as Czech-related but this one could despite both having been created by a Czech.

As for topic separation, r/czech has tags HUMOR/META/PICTURE/POLITICS/CZECH MADE/QUESTION etc. but not only does Lemmy not support them yet, the current amount of content is more than manageable without them. After growing enough, r/czech was “split” into other subreddits, like r/czechmemes (CZ/EN memes) and r/okkamaraderetarde (CZ Gen Z dank memes).

The battle won't be won until there are active communities for every fetish, I'm talking butt expansion, breast expansion, inflation, weight gain, bondage, body swapping, body part TF, ALL OF THE WEIRD STUFF!

I think many major instances prohibit NSFW communities.

But there are instances dedicated to nsfw

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's true, but most Lemmy clients default their sort to "Local" (only posts from the instance you registered on). I don't think there are many dedicated NSFW instances that are federated, at least not with my instance (lemmy.ml). Your experience may differ. The problem is that if few people can access and are aware of a community, then fewer people will post in it. That might explain why there is a lack of good porn communities on Lemmy compared to Reddit.

But it’s very common to have nsfw alts in other instances. My feeds in Reddit were also quite different depending on which account I was using. When people are wanting to “discover” content, they’ll find it, they don’t need to have it intermixed with their memes, news, politics, recipes, weird hobby community (ok maybe here’s overlap lol), etc.

Huh really? That's a shame, was wondering why I couldn't find many here.
