    A Deviantart (or similar art sharing site) clone. None of the current offerings are really suited for that. Sure you can use Mastodon or PixelFed to post art/fanart, but discovery of your portfolio is a crapshoot and so is the commenting system for people wanting to give feedback.

    A Wattpad (or similar story publishing) clone. Same problem as above. I’ve tried posting my writings on Lemmy but the relatively low character limit (for a forum) makes it entirely unsuited for long pieces (though this can be pretty easily remedied just by increasing the character limit, long form writings are are pretty successful on Reddit and forums after all, see, one, /r/nosleep, /r/worldbuilding and and all the other share-your-story subreddits, and two, all the fanfiction being published and literary roleplays happening on bb style forums. But still, something dedicated to creative writing with built-in support for tags, as well as story partitioning like chapters and series would be ideal.
