Please create or suggest Communities for Lemmy.world. Iโ€™m considering making Community creation for admins only, but for now itโ€™s open to everyone.

You can create communities yourself if you like!

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

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

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

[-] PriorProject@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Olgratin_Magmatoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Maybe I'll make a more specific/niche minecraft one then.

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 0 points 1 year ago

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

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.

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". ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿค˜๐Ÿผ

[-] Olgratin_Magmatoe@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

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

[-] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Fair, but... "Sublemminal", though. ๐ŸคŒ๐Ÿผ

[-] ericjmorey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I'd lean towards yes.

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

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)

[-] TwilightGirl1992@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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

[-] slimerancher@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Why not a general Fantasy community, for more engagement?

[-] DudePluto@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

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

[-] itchy_lizard@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

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.

[-] Ohbs@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I would be very interested!

[-] ash1300ad@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago

Iโ€™d like to see a homebrewing community about brewing beer

[-] ericjmorey@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Go ahead and create one!
