Please create or suggest Communities for Lemmy.world. I’m considering making Community creation for admins only, but for now it’s open to everyone.

I'd like to make formuladank (F1 memes), 3DS/DS and PlayStation (general PS, there's a specific PS5 one). Might bring in people from Reddit.

I tried to make a community but the final create button was unresponsive.

Yes cause I did it, haha. This is from almost a month ago

[–] Garacks@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Anyone know if we can create communities with Memmy ? I’m new one and trying to learn !

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

When creating a community, it would be nice if you also upload an icon and banner. Please make sure you don't use copyrighted images but instead create your own or look for rights-free material.

Nice, thanks! (I use their wallpaper app on my Mac)

Just created c/biblicalstudies@lemmy.world as I didn't see one. Working on transferring academic resources over from r/academicbiblical

Suggestion for a Shattered Pixel Dungeon community

I’d like to see a homebrewing community about brewing beer

Is it worth making duplicate communities? I was thinking of making a minecraft community here in lemmy.world, but there already is one on lemmy.ml.

Edit: !oldschoolminecraft has been created

[–] PriorProject@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For what it's worth, as someone participating in communities I'm likely to gravitate toward the most established one irrespective of what instance it's on. If there's a problem with an established community (bad moderation policies, bad moderators, lots of posts I don't like, or whatever) then I'll look for alternatives.

But generally, I'm more interested in more communities covering new and niche topics than I am in local copies of communities that are healthy on another instance.

[–] Mac@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is why, to me, it makes sense for instances to be topic-focused.

Imagine a Mine.Craft instance with communities of various aspects of the game.

[–] DudePluto@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I see what you mean but that would require you to make an account for each topic you want to discuss. If they make it so you can have one account for every instance that might be great, though

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You just need an account on one instance, and you can follow "subreddits" (communitites) on other instances.

Granted, it seems that for now there is still some issues accessing other communities.

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ya know, seeing both terms next to each other like that, I realized: if we were to call Lemmy communities "sublemmies", not only would it be great in repetition, and it definitely has a nice smooth ring to it, but we'd also get to refer to things that happen in them as "sublemminal". πŸ€“πŸ€˜πŸΌ

[–] Olgratin_Magmatoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Honestly, I am pretty ok with moving away from reddit based words.

Fair, but... "Sublemminal", though. 🀌🏼

[–] TwilightGirl1992@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Would anyone be interested in a community for the inheritance cycle by Christopher paolini?

[–] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Why not a general Fantasy community, for more engagement?

Ooh that’s a good idea. Thanks.

[–] Titonemo@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hi Ruud, I'm new to your instance and I tried to create a community. However after I filled up all the info and clicked "create", the button just keeps rotating. I tried many times and it was all the same.

Is there any problem which prevents me from creating community? I noticed when I tried to create account from some other instances, if my account wasn't approved, I couldn't log in. The button kept rotating without any notice (similar to my problem here).

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What name did you try to create? Did you also add images?

[–] Titonemo@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Hi Ruud, I did add the profile photo, also the name is in right format, as "self_healers_protocol" if I remembered correctly. I tried to create in other instance. It worked and it seemed that I shouldn't have had the underscore _.

[–] itchy_lizard@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

we lack a /c/mealtimevideos in lemmy (at least I couldn't find one on any). That is, links to thought-provoking videos that are ~5-15 minutes long. Bite-sized videos just long enough to watch while you eat your lunch.

[–] ruud@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

OK, I'd say: create it! :-)
