I got the idea of this thread because of this comment

I know it's kinda depressing seeing all this empty communities, but I think the problem is that it's still all concentrated around privacy and tech. To create awareness of lemmy We should create more "casual" communities and share those threads outside.

As I already pointed out in the linked comment, I'll not dislike some cat tax.

Write a howto for those users how to get their non tech friends, families, co-workers on board

That's exactly what you should avoid lol. People don't join because "hey, join this decentralized network, it's free!". People join because of content, to comment or post.

There are a lot of ideas of communities to create, but I don't want to associate them with my nickname (I feel guilty to not let others create them and doing it myself). But maybe I can create 2-3 "casual" communities.
