There are usually still some people subscribed, so you’ll get a few upvotes. Reach out to the moderators. If they don’t respond, reach out to the instance administrators to request the community. After a few weeks of posting regularly, promote the community in !newcommunities@lemmy.world, and any related communities with more subscribers. I think the “if you build it they will come” adage applies quite well here.
