Hi all!

While I'm unsure how new a community has to be to qualify for posting here, I'm hoping to shamelessly advertise a community I made on Feddit.Online called NC-SA Bops.

NC-SA Bops was made because of my personal values, and a desire to follow those values as closely and regularly as possible. In my eyes, the way the copyright system works is flawed, restricting creativity of artists in building off of existing works, as well as being heavily commercialized, potentially preventing musicians from creating music that's uniquely theirs in favour of creating music that'd be seen as more profitable.

In my explorations of music licensing, I found there to be limited options outside of the Creative Commons. I immediately distanced myself from anything licensed ND (Non-derivative) as I felt that to restrict people's creativity, and while the general ShareAlike license is fine, I also felt that by allowing commercial use of works, the general ShareAlike license does nothing to address the root issue of the copyright system: money.

I found the BY-NC-SA license perfect as it embraces creativity in allowing derivatives while also preventing commercial use not just in the original track, but in derivatives as well. Whether you agree or disagree with my thoughts, I found it annoying that finding tracks specifically licensed BY-NC-SA was a pain, and in creating NC-SA bops, I hope that it helps others find tracks they enjoy under the license with more ease.

A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.

1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
