Blaze, you’re doing god’s work, man.
I try to be somewhat active here on lemmy. But you? Everyday I see your name here, that’s amazing, my guy. Thank you very much for your activity.
Thank you! Yes, trying to keep the whole platform active and welcoming, especially since we got a new influx last week.
!cfb@fanaticus.social is the more active ncaa football community, so if someone is looking for a replacement for /r/cfb I would direct them there
Thanks, updated

Feel free to discuss among others whether you should try to consolidate communities or focus on more generic ones.
I understand that consolidating could help add more commenters and make some new fans, but the reason the sports subs on reddit were good is because they grew organically. It’ll happen here, it just takes time.
The usual issue we face on Lemmy is that Reddit at the time was not competing with modern Reddit as the go-to forum for everything.
Organic growth is indeed preferred, but this kind of posts also try to address the poor community discoverability.
I support promoting the instances, just not consolidating them.
Fair!
By the way, forgot to mention, but on !football@lemm.ee we have a bot to create match threads, with all the match facts added automatically: https://lemm.ee/post/54951018
@UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev is the bot dev if you are interested
The bot was designed to be extensible to other sports, but it would be on demand, and I’m quite busy at the moment so it would likely take some time.
No worries, I was more thinking than a NFL / NBA enthusiast would take over and adapt your bot, rather than you having to do it.
