Well that would explain why there isn't a general use community only instance. Honestly that feels like a feature that should exist, while still leaving "local only" as an instance setting for people who like it that way.

Still seems odd for instances with a specific set of premade communities with new ones disabled to worry about hosting accounts, like the startrek one.

I think the idea is to force people to spread out across instances and support the instance they're creating communities on.
