Can this be instantly achieved? Or is it inevitable that this process of reaggregation into single community will continue for a long time (months or even years)? Let’s discuss!
I personally am not a mod of any subreddit. I just had this question arise in my brain.
I don’t know how to run an instance but I did find a curated tumblr community, but I don’t think it’s the same people: https://lemmy.ml/c/curatedtumblr@sh.itjust.works Also don’t you have to pay money to host a server/instance?
Huh, it wasn’t coming up in a search for me. I had to try searching for it like three times and the first time I clicked your link I got a server error. Well, I guess the Lemmy servers are a bit screwy right now. Thanks for the link!
I assume that creating a whole server/instance takes some kind of resources and cost, but I think just opening a community is free? I haven’t tried it yet though.
You’re welcome! It took me a bit to get that link working too.
You have to pay to host an instance, but you don’t need to host an entire instance just to create a community. On your home instance (the one you signed up for) just create a new community there. Other instances will eventually be able to communicate with it
Ah ok, thanks!
