For those of us that don’t want to become admins or mods.
This could maybe help with growth by giving potential admins ideas for new instances.
Are there any other instances you would like to see be created?
I miss birdswitharms…
I think you mean communities, not instances?
Maybe advertise your idea to the right people… But you’re right. Starting a new communitiy takes some effort and more than one person to get things rolling.
I miss some more focused communities where people can ask for advice like relationship_advice or problems in the bedroom. Or stuff / funny stories from other peoples lives. For when i can’t sleep at night. Or i want to assure myself that i’m not the only one having problems.
Sorry about that, still getting use to the nomenclature here.
I’ve edited the post to fix it, thanks for the correction
no worries. we get what you’re trying to say.

Just make one and be the change you want to see. You can always give someone else mod later.

But yes I was a mod previously and realized i didn’t really have time to be a good one.
Who with be modding them?
!communityrequests@apollo.town and we can get you set up
Thank you!
It sounds like you might be referring to communities rather than instances. If you don’t want to mod it yourself you could ask in one of the request communities and soneone might choose to start it. Try doing a search for ‘request’ on whichever instance seems like a good fit, and you’ll find one.
On your instance the request community seems to be https://lemmy.ml/c/community_requests or !community_requests@lemmy.ml
OP could also try posting in https://lemmy.world/c/newcommunities or https://aussie.zone/c/lemmy411@lemmy.ca using the tag [Request]
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !newcommunities@lemmy.world
Good bot
Just start one (a community, that is). There’s not some marauding band of trolls out there, waiting to give you a hard time. If it’s niche enough, it’ll be a highlight just to see someone-who-isn’t-you post something!
