What would you like to see if there was a general !showFediverse community? (lemmy.ca)

There are various communities for hobbies and projects, but each one is small and difficult to grow. I was thinking of making a general "show everyone what you made" community. It could include

coding / FOSS projects
DIY projects
artwork / knitting / woodworking

Anything really :)

I want to set it up in a way that encourages growth to the smaller communities for the smaller communities that the project relates to. Aside from encouraging people to comment links, is there anything else we could do?

Also does this community sound like something we could use in the first place?

Agreed, a multi community would have been great for this

great for a number of things I suspect ... I think it's absence has hampered the quality of the ecosystem ... which is sad because it seems its development was stalled because too many people wanted too many different/complex things and so the basic functionality kinda just got left behind (and the devs probably got tired of the debate).
