In the past two days I’ve been trying to create a community, but without success. I insert the name (with the allowed characters), the display name, and so on. But when I click on create a spinning wheel appears for a second or two, then goes back to create and nothing has happened. I created two communities previously (10 days ago or so) without problems.
I imagine it’s just an effect of the current load for Lemmy.world, but wanted to ask just in case.
Fantastic, thank you for the steps and explanation!
Don’t do lemmy.ml tho, they don’t allow free community creation.
And other instances that do, are probably overloaded anyway, honestly.
Mine allows free community creation and is nowhere near overloaded. I also put a lot of effort in maintenance, etc. Shameless plug, I know. But honestly, I don’t care if people use my instance or not. I just think we need to spread the load, that’s all.
So you won’t mind if I register to test some stuff regarding federation? Lemmy.world and ml are getting so hammered, it’s impossible to figure out anything, because things keep breaking randomly.
Go ahead!
