This is completely counter productive to growing Lemmy. I absolutely despise discord. Look at the network traffic it generates and tell me wtf they are doing. They won't tell you. Their business model will leave you completely dumbfounded as to how they exist. Everything shared on the platform is lost in a black hole unavailable to the outside world and everything shared is a privacy nightmare. Posting this, pinning it here, and locking it is one of the biggest trolls possible. It pisses me off every time I log in. "Everyone else does it" is the excuse of idiots. Discord makes absolutely no sense to anyone that actually cares to look into it, read the user agreement, and ask sane questions about what they are doing.

I see. It is indeed a bittoo niche for the moment, we are still early on the platform and userbase growth.

I had more mainstream communities like !personalfinance@lemmy.ml !casualconversation@lemmy.world and !parenting@lemmy.world but that's a complete different area

    I have been looking into the ask and casual chat communities because I do see those getting regular activity! So those are good suggestions too.

    I should maybe look into starting communities then because I do have some content I could contribute for things like fashion and make up at least.

    I know how it sounds but even though I'm into make up- I never really got into skincare or having a routine of any kind.
