It's basically just one button. There's a podcast I like and there wasn't a community so I just started one and had the first post up within a couple minutes.
Just make it clear what kind of community you're starting in community info throw a couple questions or posts related to what you're interested to up there and see if anyone bites.
You don't need any technical knowledge to start a lemmy community, It isn't like starting an instance. It's just starting a group within whatever instance you're part of already. And all the basic tools are already there.
Thank you very much. And yes I'll definitely think about it. Although I still wonder ๐ค if I'll be able to give it time but I'll make one if I can make some time. I'm sure there are many other new Lemmy users who would love a programming community. Thanks for the pointers .
For sure. I mean I created that community and I basically give it no time at all haha, I'm just starting it up for fun and throw up posts when I feel like it and hope that eventually some people get interested.
