I haven't seen a community for requesting others to create communities, unless I have missed it. The original purpose of this community is to find discover and promote new communities, and is still the main purpose, but requesting a community is okay, even if it isn't the main purpose. For example, there was a post recently asking for alternative communities for venting/psychological help and there was some suggestions, and while that wasn't a post for promotion of new communities, it wasn't taken down, since it was related to new communities. I would say just to request it and maybe ask if one is already created, and one might be hosted on a different instance that you don't know about yet
I used all three of them, that one is the second link
Well one reason is that I don't moderate or participate in all of these communities, I'm simply documenting them here. Many communities are being created across Lemmy, so this is a place to help people find them, and I'm fulfilling the purpose of this community by posting them?
Would you mind if I pin this post? I feel like it will be helpful if people can see this post the second they enter this community, to help with the 0-1 post problem
Okay, you are now a moderator!
I'm not familiar with the term unsers. However, there is a point for multiple communities. Lemmy is meant to be decentralized with no central authority, leading to multiple communities that are the same (or with similar topics) that have different rules and moderators.
As an example, the first one is based on posting AI generated images with no specific platform while the second one is to share tips, questions, and images created on Midjourney only. This shows the differences, but even if the topics were entirely the same, it would be important for choice and decentralization
That's pretty new too, it was made within the last week, the biggest I've seen is Beehaw's then Lemmy.ml's technology communities. However, new communities are always going to be smaller at the beginning than ones that have been around for a month or a year, but that changes when people learn that they exist!
No, lemmy.world is for any type of community, you don't necessarily need to move it to lemmy.studio , but it will help lemmy.world, since lots of people have been signing up in a short time-frame. You would have to start an account on an instance if you want to create an instance there. It's up to you if you want to change it to another instance or not
Thank you for saying that!
Good idea to link that one too, but this is a feature on Lemmy to have multiple communities with the same topic, no centralization so we aren't just reliant on one instance. For more niche topics, it might make sense so small communities don't get even more fragmented. However for communities like gaming, a broad topic, it should be fine to have on multiple instances
While not every community is on Lemmy yet that I visit on Reddit, by people migrating from Reddit to here, hopefully that issue will be solved soon. The community here seems way more welcoming than the Reddit community is too
I would think professional boxing, based on the content of the community having posts discussing professional boxers
