And then have no activity in them. Not quite sure why this is happening, is it power hungry idiots thinking if I make fifty magazines, maybe one will be popular?
Do people assume if they create a magazine, it becomes active as if by magic?
Or are people thinking this is similar to a new game of Pokémon, and they have to make all the magazines?
I find it baffling that those who have created many magazines are not active.
I feel it is partly due to many smaller communities having no presence here (clearly, with no magazine existing already) and wanting to make the transition as easy as possible for others. I myself have just created /m/multicopter as I didn’t see any sort of fpv drone or other rc aircraft magazine. I’m debating whether or not to backfill it with link posts from the corresponding subreddits to try and kickstart it, or to only post some of my own content.
