    In my experience, a lot of these subs aren’t abandoned and have plenty of subscribers, so if you post, people will jump on it.

      Can confirm I’m sitting in many communities waiting for content, and always delighted to see it.

      If I was interesting, maybe I’d make some of my own.

      I just uploaded a pic of my portable CD player from 1990 to a community for CD collectors. Nobody had uploaded in a couple months and the only person who had ever uploaded was the creator.

      It proceeded to get quadruple the upvotes of the last post. People are there. You just have to share what you’ve got.

      Or if an otherwise popular community seems dead- maybe your instance just isn’t federating them right, or was never federated before you browsed to it.
