A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Are there any active communities for amateur songwriters and/or home-recording enthusiasts? (sh.itjust.works)

All the ones I’ve found appear to be dead.

I’d be particularly interested in a community where people listen and offer feedback on each other’s projects, allow you to promote your released music and network with each other. Reddit has r/wearethemusicmakers and r/indiemusicfeedback which are thriving and positive spaces, for example. I just haven’t seen anything like that here l, at least nothing that’s caught on.

Fellow musicians, where we at????

!musicproduction@sh.itjust.works is the most-active that I subscribe to.

General solution for finding communities: use https://lemmyverse.net/communities to search the whole Threadiverse. They index all the communities out there, on all instances, so they can even find communities that your home instance doesn't yet know about.

EDIT: I'd also add that to my non-musician/sound engineer eyes, !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works does have subscribers providing technically-sound answers when people post. But it doesn't have a lot of people posting. @cm0002@piefed.world, @cheese_greater@lemmy.world, and @sopularity_fax@sopuli.xyz are clearly trying to stimulate more conversations by posting periodically, but if more folks interested in music posted there, that'd probably benefit the existing subscribers too.
