I noticed that this instance seems to have community creation locked to admin users, though nothing in the rules / sidebar mentions this.
Would you be open to allowing users to create their own communities here in the future? Perhaps once there are some more active users to avoid diluting the communities we already have?
I’m very new to the fediverse and lemmy, so please let me know if this isn’t something that would be feasible for this instance.
Turns out it is right there! Thanks for letting me know.
I only asked because I was interested in understanding a bit more about lemmy and how things work in this particular instance.
I’ve always been a bit of a lurker on other platforms and forums so I’d feel bad requesting or creating a community and then sitting in silence waiting for someone else to liven the place up.
All good. Let me know if you want one created.
Think you could create a Newcastle community? I’ll try and be a little active there.
Maybe the icon could be the good ol’ giant penis backed by a lovely sunset:
Done
Cheers!
