I do this for a few sublemmys like !nasa@lemmy.world and !esa@feddit.nl. I view it as keeping communities on "life support" until Lemmy grows a bit more.
One of the best practices I can think of is to cross-post a post with text in the body (important) from a small sublemmy to a large sublemmy. This creates a link to the original post on the smaller community, and gives it some visibility.
Text in the body should be required.
Do you think it would make more sense to have just one umbrella "space" community, on maybe mander.xyz (which already has !astronomy@mander.xyz ), or even !space@lemmy.world ?
