Can some explain to me how to create a community(subreddit) on lemmy? - eviltoast

i tried to look up how to create a community online but can’t find anything, do you need permission from the instance admin

    If you’re logged in to lemmy.world, I think you can click the hamburger menu top right and then “Create community”?

    Edit: sorry, just noticed your account is on programming.dev, where there’s no such option? Then I’m afraid I don’t know :/

    Edit 2: From the programming.dev sidebar:

    Community Creation

    Communities in our instance are created from our community request zone. If you have an idea for a community that fits our instance that hasnt been made already feel free to create a post for it there. Communities will be considered for creation if theres enough interest in the idea shown by people upvoting it
