She probably deserves a break after her latest tour!

She does but it makes a community quite the ghost town lol

I wouldn't stress about it. Communities don't have to be active all the time. When I remember the Dunder Mifflin (fandom for tv show The Office) sub back on r$ddit, it was always active, but it was the same limited number of arguments and jokes and catch-phrases over and over. It was kinda amusing, but also kinda braindead. Why not just wait until there's a new tour or album or other news?

I had a similar experience with [email protected]. The Japanese tournaments only happen every 2 months, so it's dormant now... instead of trying to "force" discussion, I'm just waiting for a couple more weeks where it'll be back to daily posting for the 15-day tournament. If I came across some awesome news or media I might post it but otherwise I'm not going to stress it.

Thanks for the insight honestly, that makes sense and I remember dunder Mifflin. If people can hang around for years for a show that old then I'm sure my community will be fine too

Would you like to create a general popculturechat community on your instance? People regularly bring up that they would like more content on that topic

Honestly not opposed to it, where did the idea come from? So more than just music but for all pop culture?
