Not OP, but for me, the main community I interact with reddit for exists, there’s just no activity there. It’s currently the off-season (the community is hockey), so I think there’s no point in trying to grow the community at this moment. Hopefully in the fall we can get some traffic.
The main posts on r/hockey are just links to Twitter, as all the news is posted there first. I think they may even have bots on Twitter that post all of the links. If in the fall we are still as barren as we are now, I might communicate with the mods and ask if that’s something that they would be open to if I’m willing to write the bot.
Why wait and not just start a community up?
