Rules
The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.
1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.
2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
[link text](/c/[email protected])
This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't
You should also include either:
or instance.com/c/community
FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Either of those should work.
Only post is a gay couple. I feel like they already don't understand the rules.
Abides by that specific community's rules. However, I feel "They Were Roommates" would work better for the name of a community for general humorous instances of queer erasure, as "Sappho and Her Friend" makes me expect it's either lesbian-only or woman-only.
The original reddit sub wasn't wlw specific either, but I can change the display name to "They Were Roommates" if people want.
I also figured it might have been something like that but I didn't follow the Reddit sub. (Also, it is your community, you can do what you want, but we don't have to be a 1:1 copy of them if we do not want to be!)
Feels like you didn't read the rules then.
