The advantage of a new website is that it becomes what you make of it. Create the content you want to see in the world.

A community to find other communities in any of the Lemmy instances.
founded 3 years ago
MODERATORS
I am just seeing if there was a community for this already created, as I don't want to cause unnecessary fragmentation of a community at the start, and I don't want to moderate too many communities either if I made one if there wasn't already, so was just throwing the idea out here too
I've also found that it's extremely hard to find out whether a community already exists in another instance. You have to literally go there and search for it. Which I think is a technical hurdle. Federated instances should inform each other of this fact automatically. I just searched for a community for hours, found none so decided to create it myself here. When I shared it over on Reddit before the big blackout goes in full swing I was promptly informed that such a community already existed, but in another instance that I didn't know existed. That community just has been death for 2 years inactive. Oh, well.
My advice is, whatever, just create the community you want to see and we'll sort out fragmentation later. I get it if you don't want to moderate yourself, but this is just the big challenge of federation. Maybe fragmentation is not that bad of a thing, we'll see in time.
IDK if this is really good advice to tell someone presumably with ADHD....
Perhaps https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected] ?
Yeah, already was subscribed to that, hopefully over time there will be more specific communities
Someone made one: [email protected]
I referenced that exact community in my post though, that it was a community with a lot of memes, not very similar to the r/ADHD community on Reddit
Sorry, I posted the wrong one, should have been [email protected] the r/adhdwomen subreddit was created for the same reason
Okay, thank you!
