This community is for discussion of dead communities and the planning of reviving them.

What should a post/comment look like?

A post ideally would be mentioning that community, what value it could contribute to the fediverse, how much dedication it would take and approximately how many mods there should be, and a call for volunteers.

A comment should be a suggestion, correction or volunteering.

What is a dead community?

A community which all mods are inactive for more than 3 months, and the modlog has had no activity for the same time.

Please ping all the admins in the comments too, this is necessary.

Rules

The rules are very simple.

All posts must be about a dead community. Meta posts should be marked [META]
Be nice.

... i will work on the icon/banner later ;)

It's my own community but I've definitely semi-abandoned it... There's a new post from today, but the last one before that was 5 months ago. Every post is from me lol. I could use some help from another textiles person to help grow it and keep it going.

The thing that always made that OLD site valuable to me was the niche knowledge. If only like 5 people in the whole world knew how to do some specific thing in your incredibly rare hobby/job/craft/etc, those 5 people were on the sub devoted to it and probably already had the answer posted. That's what I wanted to see more of here, and the topic where I can contribute to that just happens to be obscure textiles. We have a ton of niche textile RSS sources tracked in our Fediverser profile too.

Just hit me up if you want to be added as a mod! Thank you so much in advance!!
