Seems like it would be a good way to funnel content into more niche communities by tying their posts to whatever is posted on a subreddit until they can take off on their own.
Does such a thing exist? If not, making it shouldn’t be too difficult. I could probably whip something up real quick and toss it up on a software sharing platform.
Would anyone be interested in something like this? It could actually work really well with Lemmy’s option to show/hide bot posts because people could choose if they want to see it at all.
Inactive communities should be locked down and redirect to more generalist active communities.
If your specific JRPG game community is inactive, lock the community and redirect to [email protected]
For a most niches on lemmy, there aren’t alternative communities that are more active.
