A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it's important to have a foundation to work on.

1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.

2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities 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:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

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.

Hi folks! After a couple of months of discussions around the topic, I have decided to go ahead and make the first actual anti-coporate community on lemmy, according to lemmyexplorer.org.

The idea is to make people aware of corporate abuse, dangers and further the movement to eventually cap corporations and individuals at 999 mil USD to rebalance the scales for the 99.9 % of the population and keep companies from becoming states.

Check it out on !anticorporate@lemmy.giftedmc.com or https://lemmy.giftedmc.com/c/anticorporate.

Feel free to debate me and others on the topic. I just ask you to stay constructive, I'm trying to help here.

Thanks for reading and have a good one!

They will not give up their wealth willingly. This battle began years ago and they’re kicking our ass more every year. All I can say is guerrilla warfare. The taliban won.

I dont think I get your point completely. What does this have to do with the taliban? In any case, I am positive that with enough support we will change things. Has been done in the past, will also be done in the future.

Do you really think if you organize and do vote drives, they won’t come up with something like they did for Trump overnight? The Taliban won against the largest most advanced army in the world. They were everywhere and no where.

I think we‘re talking about very different things. The US going invading other countries with their military imo is not a positive thing. Same with irak.

And yes, I think we can change stuff by organizing. It is how it has always worked. Of course it’s uncomfortable and those who either know it and want to keep people from doing that or those who want to excuse their own inaction would like to point out that it wont help.

The organizing will continue until morale improves.
