I think that there should be one, if there isn't. If I'm missing it, please enlighten me.

!vinyl@lemmy.world is the community I‘m subscribed to.

Post your collections, we could use more interactions.

Go on, start a community!

Because vinyl sucks!!

On a more on topic note: Lemmy is small. We dont have the population to warrant that specific of a community, yet. I'd recommend starting by joining a community about vinyl, making posts about vinyl care, and seeing how they do. When you're taking up a significant percentage of a larger parent topics feed, I'd say it's time to splinter off

I'd just add that we run the risk of being extremely unappealing if we have too many communities with near 0 activity. We're better served at the beginning having fewer, more general communities, to attract critical masses

All very valid points, I still just think they're neat and I'm gonna buy more 👍

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Haha, I think Benn Jordan even says somewhere in the video that this is the only valid stance on buying vinyl. 😁

I am gonna be a lil wary about breathing while very close to my records now, I should've guessed there was something terrible about the big fun plastic music discs 😭 thank you for sharing the video!

I can't wait for folks to start posting articles about how you shouldn't sniff your vinyl gas, just like we shouldn't be sniffing our steam deck exhaust.

It's also a problem with algorithms. Big communities drown out smaller ones because the sorting only looks at absolute numbers. Change is underway though.

Because you haven't started it yet?

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 10 points 11 months ago

There are some here, but I'm not familiar with the topic so you should judge them

https://lemmyverse.net/communities?query=Vinyl

If there isn't one that fits, consider making one or taking over an existing one to change it :)

Chances are that other people are interested too but no one has taken the initiative

[-] dallo@lemmy.kiois.net 6 points 11 months ago

Contribute to one or make yours :)

[-] AnneBonny@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 11 months ago

There is a project for recording 78s, but they are mostly shellac, not vinyl.

https://great78.archive.org/

and probably not laserdisc

[-] HollandJim@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Well, as they’re both analog, why not? Why not add cylinders while we’re at it?

[-] Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz 4 points 11 months ago

Be the change you wanna see

[-] droning_in_my_ears@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Be the change you want to see in the world :)

I've a huge record collection

[-] dhorse@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago
[-] theKalash@feddit.ch -1 points 11 months ago

I've several vinyl rips in my music collection. But storing the actual record seems pointless.
