South African here. Not really that invested in seeing any South African communities grow here if I’m honest. I don’t really feel any particular connection or pride for any sort of heritage. My ‘culture’ is cartoons and comics and video games and western music subcultures.
I do like that non-Americans are more visible here though. It feels like much more of an international crowd here on Lemmy.
Can’t say I’ve found any particular subreddits that feel like home yet. Once I’m back on the horse watching pro wrestling I’ll probably use SquaredCircle a lot again. On Reddit, I’d be most active in subreddits based on whatever I’m currently watching or playing. Which isn’t really a thing here yet. Like, one of the last subs I was fairly active in on Reddit was the Sonic the Hedgehog sub. There’s a community here but last I checked it was pretty dead. Most of the communities that I would be active in are entertainment based, I guess.
And of course I appreciate a lot of the communities in Blahaj. Although I’m still mostly floating around finding myself in the regard.
Something else that I’m appreciating is the amount of random animal subs that come through my feed that I’m slowly subbing to. From cats and dogs to raccoons and possums and otters and crows and owls. There’s a new one I’m coming across almost every day and I love it.
