As a new reddit exile, I may be misunderstanding this.

In theory something like a !gaming community could crop up on multiple large instances, especially during the mass exodus while instances are getting hammered with spikes in volume.

If that’s the case, we’ll have fragmented communities across instances. Is there any way besides subscribing to each of them to combine them into a sort of multi-reddit type aggregation? Or is this considered a temporary (albeit important to adoption) problem during the crazy stages?

    I guess rather than just silently creating a community and waiting for anyone to come, you’d have to make a post putting a light on your community. Although if you don’t have the moderators to run a community, that might be jumping the gun to early.

    There’s at least a community for highlighting/requesting new communities here on /c/newcommunities@lemmy.world

    (Okay I’m having some trouble figuring out how to link a community on jerboa)

      Yeah, I looked for a way to delete the “magazines” I’d created, but couldn’t find one so I just deleted my whole Kbin account. I don’t want that level of responsibility, being the owner of those and having to be responsible in any way for what people post. I’ll just have to wait until someone else creates one and it climbs to the top of the heap and then join it I guess.
