    Why can’t we create communities on here? Do the Beehaw admins specifically restrict this? Thanks, by the way.

      We’ve outlined the rationale in this thread: https://beehaw.org/post/140733

      The tl;dr is that having many communities make it difficult to govern and ensure a safe space exists for the overall community and having too many can result in highly fragmented discussions that would be a challenge to grow and nurture organically like we do in the physical world.

      It’s not that we don’t permit new communities, but more towards we moderate their creation based off the communities interests.
