MODERATORS
As stated in our sidebar:
Although our initial goal was to provide a new platform for r/PoliticalCompassMemes, we welcome the expansion to various new topics and themes.
which is why we are finally opening this thread.
If you have any suggestions for a community that you would like to run on our instance this is the place to post them. While our Rule 0 (no illegal content) remains our golden policy, there are a couple more guidelines for you to follow.
Community creation guidelines
- Take out your own trash: if you propose the creation of a community you must either moderate it yourself or appoint a willing moderator when you submit your request.
- Don't burn our bridges: while we value free speech, we also want to maintain a friendly and constructive atmosphere. Please refrain from posting any content that is deliberately hateful, as this could jeopardize our federation with other instances.

Since the instance is still small, start with just one !general community to concentrate everything. As people post in there it should become evident what other communities are needed based on post content.
It would be better to concentrate users into one forum during this growth phase as opposed to diluting content across many communities that will require a lot of work to keep active.
