Hello, I recently tried to find some outdoor communities but they all seem quite dead. And I don't know how to try and revive a community. Any tips?

Post there. Spread them out over days/weeks. I see too many people fill up a community in a burst making it only appear in feeds for a day.

I guess to revive a community:

  • find something to post on a regular basis. e.g. on [email protected] I post a weekly announcement about the upcoming Monsterdon movie viewing (with links and background info); LaurenceWolse posts 2-3 movie overviews a week, and there we have the basis for a moderately active sub.
  • find another couple of people to help you out by posting regularly
  • keep posting on this community's weekly thread and getting advice/inspiration from other posters here
