When you create a community on Lemmy you automatically become the mod of that community. Is that stopping you from creating one? If so, which communities would you like to see here?
I was looking for others in the states that I have connections in, so maybe just separate ones for all the Midwest states individually? (There are a few, but not all.)
Ask - whatever questions you have that don't fit somewhere that already exists. Maybe it's super niche or maybe it just doesn't work anywhere else.
FriendlySupport - whatever you've got going on there's probably someone who can commiserate if not offer additional perspective. Everyone needs someone sometimes.
Tossing in a new comment to ask a Lemmy etiquitte/standards question about this.
Is it expected that instances like midwest.social or beehaw or whatever generally remain on-theme? For example, r/cemeterypreservation is a sub on reddit that I like a lot. But it's a niche general interest and region non-specific thing. Would something like that be more suitable for another instance? What's typical around here?
It's kind just up to the admins of the instance. I'm personally fine with whatever as long as it follows the basic rules outlined in the sidebar.
I know we have a Twin Cities community, but a general Minnesota one would be nice.
I created one, come join us! https://midwest.social/c/minnesota
iOS and MacOSx
There's an apple community on the lemmy.ml instance if you wanted to sub to that in the mean time. [email protected]
Are there communities focusing on labor news on any instance? I'm primarily interested in US-based labor stuff, but an English-language international labor community would be sick.
We have a socialism community but I understand that's not exactly the same thing. I could make one for you if you want. It'd be something I'd be interested in subscribing to as well.
More focused linux communities for asking targeted questions or showing off rice, e.g.
/c/debian,/c/linuxmint,/c/archlinux,/c/manjaro, etcfwiw, as long as the user count is quite low, it's probably better to start with more general topics, and then break it down further as usership increases. just a thought/opinion on community building
