@asklemmy What is up with people creating Communities and then not even posting a single post in them?

Like wouldn’t you want to be able to grow a community by doing a post here and there, even just a welcome post to say why you created the community would make sense wouldn’t it?

    A bunch were created when a lot of people left Reddit seemingly in an attempt to snatch up popular community titles they thought might get some attention and are basically no better than domain name squatters.

    The user I snagged !eldenring@lemmy.world from has a ton more popular communities under his control that are all taken from Reddit and also empty as hell. But the instance admins are pretty good about transferring them over if you spot 'em.
