IMALlama@lemmy.world 9 months agoThat’s fair. I have reasonably mainstream hobbies when it comes to making things, so most of them have a dedicated community. Not all those communities are very active though. I try to nurture some of them with content and am personally not a big fan of posting the same content in multiple spots. Maybe I should give up on some of the smaller communities for now.

Obviously very much up to you but I do think crossposting has its place! Actual crossposting, not duplicate posts, important distinction there. Doesn’t show up twice in people’s feeds, but lets you reach both the small niche audience in the original hobby community and then also the potentially wider audience in a community like this! And of course, lets people in the bigger community know the smaller one exists.
That said I do use it sparingly :D
