What value did you get from Reddit that you hope to realize or expand upon here? (lemmy.world)

For me, it's a few things.

  1. A way to burn time that doesn't feel like a digital sugar rush.

  2. Support, camaraderie, and kindness, primarily from /r/stopdrinking.

  3. Niche stuff, like ideas for local hiking and backpacking trips, propaganda posters, and kayaking info.

That's great stuff! I really hope we can build Lemmy up so that it scratches our niche itch.

There's an unpopulated kayaking sub I found yesterday: https://lemmy.ml/c/kayaking (Not sure if I'm sharing that link correctly or in a way that makes it easy to navigate.)

I posted a photo yesterday. Would be awesome to help get it off the ground!

try tagging it as !kayaking@lemmy.ml, or @kayaking (this latter one is for users on kbin, mastodon, etc.) for a more fediverse-inclusive link! that way, you're not sending people to a specific instance
