          I wouldn’t stress about it. Communities don’t have to be active all the time. When I remember the Dunder Mifflin (fandom for tv show The Office) sub back on r$ddit, it was always active, but it was the same limited number of arguments and jokes and catch-phrases over and over. It was kinda amusing, but also kinda braindead. Why not just wait until there’s a new tour or album or other news?

          I had a similar experience with !sumo@lemmy.world. The Japanese tournaments only happen every 2 months, so it’s dormant now… instead of trying to “force” discussion, I’m just waiting for a couple more weeks where it’ll be back to daily posting for the 15-day tournament. If I came across some awesome news or media I might post it but otherwise I’m not going to stress it.

            Thanks for the insight honestly, that makes sense and I remember dunder Mifflin. If people can hang around for years for a show that old then I’m sure my community will be fine too
