Follow Friday Master Post

[ysabetwordsmith]

For a while now, I've been making posts that list active communities on Dreamwidth. The weekly posts cover different topics, mostly active communities plus a few dormant that could be revived. The seasonal gather posts list all the active communities from the past three months, without the dormant ones, but adding a list of newly created communities from the same timespan. These also include the parameters for the listings.

This seems like a good time to make a masterlist of these resources. Please share widely to help people find communities they'll enjoy on Dreamwidth.

Oh, you're an actual star; this must have taken forever to compile and organise! Thank you so much for sharing it with us! ♥

Loosely stuffed into a meatsuit at the moment. ;)

I think about an hour -- I had the quarterly roundups that I could copy-paste, then I had to sort alphabetically. I've been meaning to do this for a while because I often refer back to those older lists when someone mentions an interest.

*bow, flourish* Happy to be of service.
