Here at slrpnk.net we made the decision a while ago to open community creation to all members. We hope that this will cater to contributors making this instance their home and reduce lurking.

However this comes with some responsibilities:

Active moderation of communities you create (you can add additional moderators yourself though)
Please add a community avatar and a basic side-bar text explaining what the community is about
Make a short introduction post to tell us a bit about yourself and why you created this community (this is mandatory!)

Communities that do not adhere to this and/or are seemingly abandoned by their original creators (and no one willing to take over) will be pruned from time to time.

Also: while this isn't a strict rule, please think a bit about thematic relevance. Does this community really have any relation to the Solarpunk movement? The last few days we had some communities being created here that seemingly were totally unrelated. "Brand" communities or other such commodified spaces are also strongly discouraged.

This seems like a really great way to grow a community. I like the intention behind it and as a community member I'm interested to see what others are interested in and where things grow. It make this the space feel inclusive and accessible. Feels like it's hard sometimes to give trust to others and give people the tools to create what they want. Anyway great idea.
