It's fine for news, tech and memes but none of the niche subs that I loved are here. I really miss the sub for my city.
Why not create it?
Can one simply create an arbitrary community on any lemmy instance? I wonder how lemmy handles multiple communities of the same name, across multiple instances.
yeah, that's kind of an issue. Many communities exist more than once on multiple instances. Then again, this can also be a benefit. Maybe one of them isn't to your liking -> choose another one. Or one of them goes down -> there's a backup.
