I’m confused because in the end it seems that both [email protected] and [email protected] are indeed partners based on their sidebars, but then the comment doesn’t make sense
And I’m confused because the literally just made the third ELI5 Community on Lemmy.world but they’re suggesting someone else just work with existing mods? Pretty sure the AMA requests community was just created too.
Edit: actually I think they just took over AMA requests. . Maybe the old mod affiliated with the Lemmy World AMA community and not the Lemmy.ca one?
That is key. OP has not provided a clear distinction between their new community and existing communities. Unless they do, this seems like pointless fragmentation of an already small userbase.
Fragmentation is natural and it’s good that it’s relatively seemless here but the user base is still so small that working with the existing players is a much better idea. In my experience most communities on Lemmy don’t have super rigid mod rules with a hierarchy anyway. It’s likely to be way easier to work together if existing mods are active and work with the existing subscriber base.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]
A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
Rules
The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.
1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.
A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rulebreaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage.
B. No illegal content.
C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.
D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.
E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.
2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.
Dude or dudette there is already one and they are partndered with me on the community of AMA Requests.
Yeah, isn’t that this community? 😗
[email protected] ?
Then delete it and get together with the other ones and power mod the shit out of it.
What do you mean? Your message isn’t really clear, which community are you talking about?
You’re one to talk lol

This you?
since then the mods have gotten back to me to make me a mod did not know it existed.
So? The idea of the fediverse is that you can have plenty of identical communities if you don’t agree with the other/main one.
That is key. OP has not provided a clear distinction between their new community and existing communities. Unless they do, this seems like pointless fragmentation of an already small userbase.
thank you
