  • Musicians, music fans, and music listeners of Lemmy, what communities do you recommend?

  • I am no musician, so I cannot comment in which communities exist. On the "void" part, you can help by contributing to existing but virtually dead communities by posting and commenting there. Sure, that sounds like a standard phrase from Lemmy's advertising, but this is how active communities are built (that and that newcomers are treated well). Good luck in any case! 😀

  • Interestingly, Walmart tried the opposite direction in the late 1990s: establishing itself on the German market. After less than 10 years and an estimated loss of $1 billion, they withdrew completely. There are numerous articles and videos about this topic, simply search for "Walmart Germany loss".
