I would think professional boxing, based on the content of the community having posts discussing professional boxers

I haven't seen a community for requesting others to create communities, unless I have missed it. The original purpose of this community is to find discover and promote new communities, and is still the main purpose, but requesting a community is okay, even if it isn't the main purpose. For example, there was a post recently asking for alternative communities for venting/psychological help and there was some suggestions, and while that wasn't a post for promotion of new communities, it wasn't taken down, since it was related to new communities. I would say just to request it and maybe ask if one is already created, and one might be hosted on a different instance that you don't know about yet

I used all three of them, that one is the second link

Yeah, I've been trying to get a weather seed for a while, keep filling it out, but must be doing it wrong, since regardless of the dates and weathers I put in, it always says that there's no seed with that weather at the end

I think possibly, but since I did not see this comment till now, and there was recently an update on Lemmy.world, so it was possibly solved. When I was searching for it, it seemed to take a few seconds longer than the others for it to fetch, I have heard in the past the Lemmy.ml is having problem's due to the size, but it showed up. At least you should be able to get to the community and view it, but the "subscribe pending" thing still happens. We are on the same instance, so this should be the same for you, I think. Hope the bug is fixed for you too!

Hello, it may be the fetching problem as you need to search for it first before the community fetches it. Other than that, there seemed to be a problem searching for them with the exclamation mark and when not using the exclamation mark the community does show up but no join ability, but that problem seems to be gone on Lemmy.world after they updated.

Since you are on Lemmy.zip, I don't know if it's a similar problem, or something else though, so sorry if this isn't helpful for your case, just trying to tell you what I know, hopefully this gets fixed soon!

I'm unsure of why, it seems like we are on the same instance, but only the one with the exclamation works for me and before. However, since there was just an update maybe the bug is fixed, but please tell me if you still can't join it now

Well one reason is that I don't moderate or participate in all of these communities, I'm simply documenting them here. Many communities are being created across Lemmy, so this is a place to help people find them, and I'm fulfilling the purpose of this community by posting them?

Hello, we have recently added a new rule that the community name and a description be included in the title. This helps people understand the content of the community better from a glance

An example for your community is shown below, based on your community sidebar, but you can update your title differently, if you believe there is a better way to explain it:

Imaginary Starships - A place to post pictures of imaginary starships

Please update your title as soon as possible!

Yeah very weird, I don't know what people have against Arkansas, not really a state I hear much about personally

Hello, while I haven't made an official announcement on the rule change (about to do that soon), I think it will be helpful to edit your post title to something like this or different as I don't fully understand this community myself yet:

Main Character - A community where you post a story on how we met and/or how you will help me stay or stop me from being the main character

Yes apparently people still do, I personally used it for a while for the points and when the AI was first released, but then stopped using it as I felt it wasn't exactly the best browser for privacy

Hello, I never really thought of it that way. I thought it would be more useful for a description since some community names don't make sense by themself, but I think including both the name and a description in the title would be more useful.

Saw this post earlier and wanted to respond before continuing to post with the community name added this time but got sidetracked into an internet rabbit hole accidentally, so sorry for the delay in response to this post

For clarification, a post title would be like this? Just to make sure I'm understanding correctly:

New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

What? Why would it be?

Change the link from a /c/ to an /m/, lemmy uses /c/ and kbin uses /m/, not an automatic way to do it across platform yet

I'm sorry if my posts have made your frustrated or irritated. I'm not a bot, this is a place to announce new communities, and a lot of communities were made recently. If all of them are announced, it may help with communities fracturing too much. I saw your mod reports and I think you are also confused about the creators of the communities, by saying "generating hundreds of new communities", it makes me think that you think I moderate them. However, I only moderate 4 communities, including this one, and all of those I posted have their own moderators

How so?

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. This may take some time. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

I forgot to change it lol, i use a template for the formatting so I don't have to type it out every time, but i forgot to change it, that's my mistake

yes it is, though it wasn't really clear in the image that it was

Here's a link for kbin.social, there's an issue where Kbin uses /m/ while Lemmy uses /c/, so these only work on Lemmy, hopefully a universal link regardless of Kbin or Lemmy will happen soon.

However, the link below should work, but it doesn't work either, so I don't know what kind of issue that is

https://kbin.social/m/manualcoffeebrewing@latte.isnot.coffee

Would you mind if I pin this post? I feel like it will be helpful if people can see this post the second they enter this community, to help with the 0-1 post problem

For more explanation, they messaged me about this community looking for moderators, but I do not think it's possible on Lemmy, or at least I haven't found a way yet to appoint a moderator without going to a comment or post from that person on the community. I had them comment then, not as easy as saying boop and you get mod lol

Okay, you are now a moderator!

Yes, I'm pretty sure, it is related to China, unless they try to censor it there

How exactly do you make a universal search link like you did with the magnifying glass emoji?

I'm not sure, when I think of manual brewing, I think of hot brews usually, but I'm not an expert. However, I recently made of post for a general coffee community to that has posts about cold brew:

https://latte.isnot.coffee/c/coffee

!coffee@latte.isnot.coffee

Coffee

Just so you know, that community that your promoting is the community you posted this post in

It's not incorrect, it's not a link for kbin, it's for Lemmy

Well Lemmy is meant to be decentralized with no central authority, leading to multiple communities that are the same (or with similar topics) that have different rules and moderators. It leads to there being no single point of failure and by there being multiple communities, it can keep communities less corrupt, since there is always more than one to choose from

There is one in lemmy.film for Movies and TV Shows, but even if it was entirely the same community topic, there's still a reason to have more than one community on the same topic

I'm promoting this new community for discovery, not my own, but which EV communities do you personally recommend?

Hello, even if I just found this community, this seems like a community that has an interesting concept due to the wide range of posts that I can see on here.

I haven't moderated on Lemmy for many days, but I have moderated three communities, one large !newcommunities@lemmyworld and two relatively small !acnh@lemmy.world and !xenogendersandmore@lemmy.blahaj.zone

Other than that, I'm in the EST timezone and that is all

Takes a while for it to fetch the community, please read: Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Haven't made them, promoting all the options of new communities. Giving people choice is the point, people will choose to either post to your gaming (or a different gaming) and rpclipsgta, or both. Even if they are niche, I don't see how you get to the conclusion of one post per month, as that isn't even happening at all right now with a small user base, not taking to account future growth. I have considered things from that angle, and saw that that isn't happening now, and we will see what happens in the future too

Federated is when multiple unrelated instances of a software can communicate and share with one another. Decentralized is when there is no central point, no one set of servers, and there is choice which is what Lemmy is and it's not centralized like Reddit is. Lemmy can be both federated and decentralized.

They even say in the introduction in the Docs, that I will link below, that "Federation is a form of decentralization. Instead of a single central service that everyone uses, there are multiple services that any number of people can use."

https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/introduction.html?highlight=decentr#introduction

I think there is some semblance of misunderstanding. I only moderate three communities and those are for communities that I did not see any alternatives for at the beginning, after searching for them.

I did not try to be part of the existing communities first as I did not create this one at all either. This community is for discovery and promotion of new communities. I post them to help give choices that people may not be aware of and fragmentation is not necessarily a bad thing in the first place. Fragmented communities can make the communities smaller, leading to an actual sense of community. Bigger does not always mean better.

Lemmy is meant to be decentralized like said before and a point of that is that there is no one place that controls the whole federation. While it might not make sense to you, the decentralized nature gives people the ability to create and interact with the communities they choose and don't need to go to one place even if it's a niche topic

I'm not familiar with the term unsers. However, there is a point for multiple communities. Lemmy is meant to be decentralized with no central authority, leading to multiple communities that are the same (or with similar topics) that have different rules and moderators.

As an example, the first one is based on posting AI generated images with no specific platform while the second one is to share tips, questions, and images created on Midjourney only. This shows the differences, but even if the topics were entirely the same, it would be important for choice and decentralization

It's not much of fragmenting communities if people can easily learn about the others and it gives people choice. Not every technology community is the same. For example:

• Lemmy.ml's focus is on all news related to creation and use of technology, and to facilitate civil, meaningful discussion around it
• Beehaw's is rumors, happenings, and innovations in the technology sphere. If it’s technological news, it probably belongs here
• Lemmy.world's seems to be about news
• Lemmy.einval.net's seems to be about general technology, without a focus on news so far based on the post I can see, but it is too new to know for sure.

While the first three seem to be about news, the fourth seems to be about general technology.

Furthermore, in some cases fragmentation of communities is the very point. Lemmy is meant to be decentralized, which gives you choice in which one to go to. I don't see how you think that is counterproductive though

Okay, that's good to know. I wasn't aware of that problem, I hope you get some progress on that issue soon!

That's pretty new too, it was made within the last week, the biggest I've seen is Beehaw's then Lemmy.ml's technology communities. However, new communities are always going to be smaller at the beginning than ones that have been around for a month or a year, but that changes when people learn that they exist!
