So im pretty new here, I come from reddit because i got fed up with reddit but i do miss some community’s. Ive thought about “cloning” them on lemmy but in my own way im just not sure if i have the time or patience to focuse on one.
What would you advise? Do i go for it? People who have community’s what’s it like?
I say if you plan to stick around and have patience to cultivate your community: do it.
If you don’t, then please don’t create them. You could join and post in existing communities that are close to those topics instead.
You are of course free to do as you will, but the reason I say don’t go for it if you don’t have the patience is because dead and unmoderated communities cause more issues than they solve.
Additionally: if you are new it’s possible some of the communities you are looking for already exist. Searching in https://lemmyverse.net/ might give you better results in case you are on a small instance.
Edit: I feel like I should elaborate: a community that is left unmoderated might end up with horrible content and the instance admin will be clueless until someone bumps into said content and reports it.
You could create your commmunities but lock them if you decide to ditch lemmy.
