I'd like to make formuladank (F1 memes), 3DS/DS and PlayStation (general PS, there's a specific PS5 one). Might bring in people from Reddit.
I tried to make a community but the final create button was unresponsive.

Joined! Would love to see this take off, this was my favorite sub on Reddit
Post some of your favorites. I wanted to bring people from Reddit but they banned me ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Hmm, I've seen that before. Did you upload a banner while creating? I have a feeling that might have an issue, try creating without banner and upload the banner later. (If that works, let me know so I can troubleshoot that)
Tried, no difference. This is Icearaven (FF fork just with addons so no real difference) on Android.
~~I also wanted to try in Bromite but I can't even log in, it gets stuck.~~ nvm my bad, wrong password. Should have an error message there instead of just spinning.
And in the browser? (to rule out issues with the app itself)
Aha I know what the problem was. Lowercase only. The error popup informing about this doesn't show up on FF, so I didn't know that's a requirement.
Ah! Nice.

Just created c/[email protected] as I didn't see one. Working on transferring academic resources over from r/academicbiblical
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.
OK, I'd say: create it! :-)
I would be very interested!
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.
Here's a good resource to find images: https://unsplash.com/
Nice, thanks! (I use their wallpaper app on my Mac)
I just created /c/hockey. /r/hockey on reddit is a big community, yet no hockey communities on Lemmy at all yet. I figured I might as well get the ball (or puck, I guess) rolling.
Ah, yes. Hockey is something we Dutch are good at. Not me though. I prefer playing pool.
Rolling pucks are difficult to handle
So I'm thinking some health related coms could be useful. I was thinking migraine because that's what I'm familiar with, but I can't see anything health related on any instance. So maybe something broad for starters, like just health?
Anyone know if we can create communities with Memmy ? I’m new one and trying to learn !
Oh man!!! The Mlem app doesn’t seem to allow me to create a community or post. I’ll have to jump on safari and see what I can come up with. I’ll also need help once I do create a community with pictures for the banner and such, cuz I’m blind soooo…. Yeah. Maybe that’s why I can’t create stuff with Mlem. Voiceover doesn’t seem to be reading everything.
Ah no problem, I can help with the images. I don't know the app.. just using the browser..
Thanks. I appreciate that. I’ll let you know when it’s created. :)
Ok so update. Creating communities with the official site is kinda broken, at least with a screen reader. I get to the “create” button and it prompts me to match…. Something, but voiceover stops before it can finish. Dang it!!!!
Oh hmm, that's bad. OK so what if I create the community for you, and make you moderator? And we can see how it works from there?
Ok. Sounds like a plan. 😁
What name would you like for the community?
AllAboutFantasyMedia.
I created the community. If you could comment to my post there, I can make you moderator. Also you can try to change description, add a banner etc. and let me know if anything doesn't work for you so I can assist.
Ok, I will. One sec.
Hi Ruud, I'm new to your instance and I tried to create a community. However after I filled up all the info and clicked "create", the button just keeps rotating. I tried many times and it was all the same.
Is there any problem which prevents me from creating community? I noticed when I tried to create account from some other instances, if my account wasn't approved, I couldn't log in. The button kept rotating without any notice (similar to my problem here).
What name did you try to create? Did you also add images?
Hi Ruud, I did add the profile photo, also the name is in right format, as "self_healers_protocol" if I remembered correctly. I tried to create in other instance. It worked and it seemed that I shouldn't have had the underscore _.
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
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.
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.

A general woodworking community would be nice.
