New Communities
A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
Rules
The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World's rules. You can click the link but we've reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn't a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.
1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.
A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn't rulebreaking and we can't be supportive to them then we probably shouldn't engage.
B. No illegal content.
C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.
D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.
E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.
2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
[link text](/c/[email protected])
This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't
You should also include either:
or instance.com/c/community
FAQ:
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.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

I won't blame you for that, quite the contrary :)
But since it's obviously one way to look at it, I thought I should mention it.
Thx for the link.
Beside the ones I listed in the sidebar already? I follow a few that are related to old tech, others that are more into 'simple' and peaceful content. Alas, like often here on Lemmy, quite a few of them see little to no activities. Next to the journaling community I've decided to focus on the other community I would love to see grow and be active is the Simple Living one. It was one of the communities I appreciated the most back on Reddit (with great mods and great overall participants, useful content with little negativity/hatred or even drama) [email protected]
I also consider the Calvin & Hobbes community a great complement to any timeline. The humanism and the kindness that come out of every single strip of that wonderful comic is more precious than ever [email protected] (I happily look at the new strip posted each day, even though I own all the comics)
And then there are the others communities. Things like [email protected] or I don't know [email protected], and quite a few more.
I don't know if the full list of my subscriptions is visible when looking at my profile, here on Lemmy? Let me know if it isn't and I will send you a copy of them so you can see by yourself. Many of those communities can share content related to getting back control (on our lives/activities/the things we do and the things we use, the world we (want to) live in), and most will do it in a non-hostile way, but that is also not their main topic so I'm not sure you may want to include that many ;)
