NBA

I feel like presently the overlap of people who are in the fediverse and into sports is pretty slim :/. I don't have any big ideas, sorry, but I appreciate all the content. Let's make NBA cup predictions. We could do season awards too. <3 and thanks to the mods

Hey guys, I've been on Lemmy since the APIcalypse and I'm a big Knicks fan, and really sports fan in general. It's a bit of a chicken or the egg problem with the sports communities on Lemmy, because I feel like there are actually more fans on Lemmy than we realize. But when the communities seem dead, people stop using them, and it's a vicious cycle. For some reason I never actually subscribed to this community in the first place, but I'll try to do my part from now on.

First of all I think keeping everything in one community is a must, like people initially went way too fast on trying to create team specific communities before building a generalized NBA community here.

I agree that incorporating the high seas would be a good idea, but it's also really disruptive to try to migrate to another server. Perhaps a workaround would be creating a separate community on a piracy friendly server and linking it from here when necessary.

But really the main thing is pretty simple: we all need to get out of our shells and try to post and comment more often, and hopefully things will build momentum from there.

i really should interact here more

I think we should post things NBA related that people want to talk about. I'll try and post more content.

Yeah I think it's time I start interacting here more.

We just have to be patient and be more active.

I still don't understand why you'd prefer to stick with a community on LW when there is a whole instance at https://nba.space/ waiting for more participation.
