Taken around 11:30 Friday night, although the picture sure doesn't do the real thing justice
Thank you! I've just made a lemmy.world account. @Brazen_Earthquake@lemmy.world
I'd like to request to be made a moderator of the !geocaching@lemmy.world community. The only mod there, @postman@lemmy.world, hasn't had any activity in the last 3 months. I tried conctacting them, and haven't received a response.
I was the only frequent poster on c/geocaching for about two months before a recent burst of activity, and I'd love to add a bit more of a wiki/sidebar now. Geocaching has been my main hobby for about 4 years, and I'd love for this community to keep growing.
Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask for this, please let me know where I should post instead!
Yup, I think that's a great idea! Will look into having more of a wiki/FAQ
Pretty bursty when there's a new post, but quiet otherwise
That's a great point! Here in Canada I'm already nearing the end of my caching season. Maybe we'll hear some stories from Texas soon!
Unfortunately I don't have anywhere near the time, or content ideas, for that to be sustainable. I'll keep the posting times in mind though, that's a good idea!
Thank you! I'm glad someone is enjoying the content
I've been plugging away for about 2 months now trying to grow a small hobby community here on Lemmy. It's doing well, up from 200 to 425 subscribers in the time I've been active.
But, sometimes it feels discouraging. I'm still the only one who posts with any regularity, and I miss the more in-depth discussions I was able to have at the other place. How long, or how many subscribers, does it take for a community to become self-sustaining?
Edit: !geocaching@lemmy.world for anyone curious
Geocaching! Yes, it's a very niche hobby that I'm obsessed with, but I really miss the discussions in that subreddit...
!geocaching@lemmy.world is still mostly me shouting into the void, although it's been getting better lately. It'd be awesome to hear other people's stories, if they're out there!
I am trying hard to get !geocaching@lemmy.world going, although I'm not a mod myself. Subscriber numbers are growing, but it's still rare that someone else posts. I just try to keep plugging away at a sustainable pace. Luckily I have a repository of pictures and stories to share, which dates back several years
I've found lots of TB hotels that I like over the years, but this one really takes the cake. It's the end point of a mystery and locked with a padlock, so it's rare for anything to go missing. It's inside a public building, so always dry and in great condition. And it's central enough to usually be within walking distance whenever I visit the city.
Anyone else have a cache they liked enough to visit more than once?
