Did you make something? Do you want the fleeting rush of endorphins that come with affirmation from strangers? Do you think what you made is neat? Share it here!
Paintings, movies, music, drawings, models, gardens, houses, snowmen, sandcastles - if you made it, you can post it.
RULES:
Some things you make are not to be shared. These include:
- Messes
- Children
- Biological... byproducts
- Bigotry
Do not be a jerk.
- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, or bigotry of any kind.
- Don't try to sell stuff unless people ask. You can post your Etsy (or similar) if someone prompts you. No spamming self-promotion.

That's fair. I have reasonably mainstream hobbies when it comes to making things, so most of them have a dedicated community. Not all those communities are very active though. I try to nurture some of them with content and am personally not a big fan of posting the same content in multiple spots. Maybe I should give up on some of the smaller communities for now.
Would you like to share some of those communities? Maybe we have interest in common
Here's a list. Note that there's a decent amount of fragmentation due to multiple communities filling the same niche in different instances, as well as sub communities (see: functional printing and fix my print vs 3D Printing and birding and travel photography vs photography)
Not so much "I made", but related:
How about you? Always looking for communities for things I'm interested in. My default sort is subscribed + new.
Interesting, thanks!
On my side, I'm mostly invested in !lego@lemmy.world. I also lurk !warhammer40k@lemmy.world as they have beautiful painted figures
Obviously very much up to you but I do think crossposting has its place! Actual crossposting, not duplicate posts, important distinction there. Doesn't show up twice in people's feeds, but lets you reach both the small niche audience in the original hobby community and then also the potentially wider audience in a community like this! And of course, lets people in the bigger community know the smaller one exists.
That said I do use it sparingly :D
