Lemmy is growing but we need to work to make easy to allow reddit mods to setup instances and fund them

I am a Reddit mod. Gimme the step-by-step tutorial!

Be mildly competent at computers... or know someone who is and willing to help you.

Either setup your own instance, or find an instance that's already setup that you like... (ask around if you're unsure, but most people generally like beehaw.org [the instance you appear to be from])

Start a community...

Success! now you've migrated your subreddit to lemmy!

(This is a little sarcastic. I'm not good at legit guides. But it is possible!)

Just wanted to add that not all instances are allowing new community creation, including Beehaw.

Yeah, there's an edit. Seems not to have propagated back to beehaw. yay for beta!

Well, that is an interesting script. I wonder how many will come across? Maybe they will pull the top 20% or something.

Well, on Beehaw you cannot create new communities, but you certainly can be made a mod of one even from another instance. Find the ones you want and ask the current mods of it.

Maybe pick an existing one and help it get off the ground:

I haven’t found many moderator features on Lemmy so far. The community that I created does not seem to have any way of blocking posts.
