I've setup an instance focused on some niche topics and hobbies, there's not much there yet but here they are if anyone wants!

Hey, I'm looking for a community with possum pics and memes, like either r/possums or r/possummemes type content
I can't help but notice you have "possum" in your name. Do you have any possum related communities?
We do now! I think it'd certainly fit with the niche communities we've made so far. No content yet, but feel free to post some stuff: https://possumpat.io/c/possums
Dope, thanks! I'll try to contribute.
I just tried to sign up and verified my email but the login button is still just spinning. I'm guessing it's because you haven't approved my signup?
Yeah, the login approval flow needs a bit of work - you just get the spinny if you're denied login for any reason. Should be good to go now!
There is an existing star trek topic thing I found in search. Is there a way to merge them? This is the one thing I'm going to be worried about is fragmentation of topics across instances.
Right now, not really.
This was also an issue on reddit tbh - several subreddits would spring up for multiple topics, like how there was r/gaming and r/games. Over time, I'm sure some instances will become the "default" for a given topic, and others will become defunct. Imo, this is a good thing. It's a pretty healthy way to grow communities and avoid lemmy.ml dominating every topic.
