!metaldetecting@lemmy.world is off to a great start with over 60 sub's, I hope someone else whos into detecting on Lemmy will eventually post occasionally too. For now its just me digging holes in my back yard a few times a week.

I recently took over !localllama@sh.itjust.works the mods were inactive for years and the pinned post were outdated which started to bug me after months.

I didn't like the description was just "were a replacement for the reddit r/localllama community" with same thumbnail and everything. Fuck reddit, our communities aren't cheap copycats nor should we treat them that way. So I rewrote the description and helped make some new community artwork. People seem to like the new changes which I'm happy about I spent hours editing and colorizing that stupid purple llama picture.

I also recently became mod of !vaporents@lemmy.world and gave it a similar glowup with new art rewritten description and unpinned years old inactive post.

I'm not super big into number tracking except for metaldetecting since thats truly my baby. I hope the communities I look after continue to grow at the speed they were meant to.

That's really cool, fam, it's an important topic and I'm glad to see it getting independent support here.
