Hi Everyone! I joined today. Have used Lemmy briefly in the past but never got into it fully.
Only question I have right now is - how does one create a Community? I'd like to start one for my small town to post news, events and open discussions for others to find and join as the server grows.
With that said, if there's no activity in the small community, I'd post directly in !Canada. As we grow and we get more people, I think we'll naturally break out into the smaller geographical communities. I think this is valid even for provinces at this point.
