We have a small but dedicated user base. The community has daily posts to share your shave of the day (SOTD) so you can easily see what other people have been using. Other posts are allowed, like mail calls, reviews, or any other interesting shave content....
I took over and got an auto-bot going for the daily threads. We have a small but active core group of people there, and I have another buddy lined up to help run the place when he has more time.
It was a lot busier during the reddit boycott, but most people have returned to reddit… July and August have some big “events” at r/wetshaving that a ton of people participate in, so activity has moved back there.
A big problem that !wetshaving ran into was the bot breaking with the upgrade to 0.18.x, which had the unfortunate timing of happening when everyone helping run the place got really busy with one of the reddit events, and it made it seem like the instance had been abandoned.
I think over time it’ll develop into a decent community. My next project is hosting a wiki based on the r/wetshaving wiki.
Hiya! I just visited this community (!wetshaving) and wanted to point out that the daily threads on a tiny community make up more noise than valuable content. The active threads are 100 % bot-generated prompts with 0 replies, which is very discouraging. I’d recommend having at most one per week, and otherwise trying to fill the community with information or questions rather than megathreads like these :)
