Hi Everyone! I joined today. Have used Lemmy briefly in the past but never got into it fully.

Only question I have right now is - how does one create a Community? I'd like to start one for my small town to post news, events and open discussions for others to find and join as the server grows.

Thanks in advance!

Also, assuming this is a Canadian small town, comment in this thread and I'll add it to the big list

Thanks Otter! It is a Canadian small town (Okotoks). I'll try getting it set up via web this week if I have time! Appreciate the guidance.
