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.

    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.

    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.

      Joined! Would love to see this take off, this was my favorite sub on Reddit

        Post some of your favorites. I wanted to bring people from Reddit but they banned me ¯_(ツ)_/¯

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

      Hmm, I’ve seen that before. Did you upload a banner while creating? I have a feeling that might have an issue, try creating without banner and upload the banner later. (If that works, let me know so I can troubleshoot that)

        Aha I know what the problem was. Lowercase only. The error popup informing about this doesn’t show up on FF, so I didn’t know that’s a requirement.

        Tried, no difference. This is Icearaven (FF fork just with addons so no real difference) on Android.

        I also wanted to try in Bromite but I can’t even log in, it gets stuck. nvm my bad, wrong password. Should have an error message there instead of just spinning.

          And in the browser? (to rule out issues with the app itself)

      You can create communities yourself if you like!

    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.

      OK, I’d say: create it! :-)

    When I try to subscribe to communitues of other servers, it shows “Pending”. What does that mean?

      Good question. I will ask that to the Lemmy devs.

    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

      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.

        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.

          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

            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.

              Good point. Not sure what I was thinking with my initial comment

              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”. 🤓🤘🏼

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

                  Fair, but… “Sublemminal”, though. 🤌🏼

      Ah, yes. Hockey is something we Dutch are good at. Not me though. I prefer playing pool.

    So I’m thinking some health related coms could be useful. I was thinking migraine because that’s what I’m familiar with, but I can’t see anything health related on any instance. So maybe something broad for starters, like just health?

    A general woodworking community would be nice.
