This is more of a support question, related to using Lemmy. Please see the sidebar for a list of communities that offer support. Removing under rule #3.

JohnDClay,

Lots of smaller instances to make a community on, try to use the decentralized nature of the fediverse

There are a few programming based instances, I’m sure any of them would be great to host the community

Lemmy.ml removed the ability to create communities to (I believe) encourage using other instances. You can create a community on other instances still - like lemmy.world, for example.

Jourei,

But please create it somewhere else than lemmy.world as well as it’s by far the largest one. Gotta distribute and disperse across fedi!

The longer I stayed on Lemmy.world, the more I realized how counter-productive everyone migrating to the biggest, most popular instance was. They should be actively encouraging new users in the Fediverse to explore

I actually made a new account today on .ca for that reason. I have had a .world account for two months now but they’re having some growing pains so I figured I’d do my (tiny) part to help distribute the server loads a little better.

I’ve been floating between .ca, shitjustworks, dbzer0 and kbin for the last few months before I settled on .ml. I like being given the choice of what content I want to see, on the platform that I like most

And how are you supposed to do that without an account on that other instance? Genuine question.

I don’t want to migrate accounts just to create a community; something that isn’t even properly possible yet.

phillaholic,

I’m up to 4 accounts because none of this shit is stable or scaling well. It’s a mess.

Hopefully lemmy.world does the same tbh
