My favorite group pre collapse was r/typewriters — how does one go about creating a sub here and having word of it get out?
You choose an instance where you want to create your community on and click „create community“ on the respective server‘s sidebar
and for promotions you could use !newcommunities@lemmy.world
Then later on there’s also !communityPromo@lemmy.ca
As a side note, OP’s instance does not allow new communities.
But users can moderate communities on instances other than their own. So it’s common for a user to create an account on another instance just to create a community, then add their main as a moderator just for convenience. So it’s not a show stopper if OP wants to keep using this account.
Someone had created !typewriters@lemmy.cafe and I could swear it had some content, but engagement was low at the time and I think the creator abandoned it. I can move ownership to you if you’re up to it.
