Trying to create a new community for satnavs

Hello - I’m relatively new to this ghost town node :). I created [email protected] a few months ago to have a place to discuss foreign exchange and making payments abroad, which was lacking in the whole threadiverse.

Anyway, I’m trying to create another new community with these parameters:

  • name: navigation_technology
  • display name: Navigation technology, SatNav, OSM, …
  • sidebar Everything about hardware and software used for navigation.

But when clicking the “create” button, it just spins for a moment and goes back to a create button. No error message, but will not move forward.

Has community creation been disabled? I noticed a strange new group called “G's Chicken and Waffles” which actually just has posts about the Ruby programming language. So I wonder if that possible spam/abuse might have led to restrictions on creating communities.

(edit)
Perhaps it should be slightly broader than navigation tech, and be “travel technology”, which could then cover, idk, things like tourist review software or the ITA software app. Though it would probably still be primarily navigation tech that people discuss.
