What is a sub/community that you wish existed (actively) on Lemmy?

Maybe there are others like you and we can actually get it running, or maybe to already exists but you just don't know!

I grew and modded the K League (Korean football) sub previously, and I've wondered about starting one Lemmy. I would like one to be here so that I can can keep up with what's happening easily, but I also kinda like not having a feeling of responsibility to post stuff regularly.

If I did start one, does anyone know if there's any technical problems with creating and modding a comm on an instance different from your home instance?

Last I heard there's still some problems with it and I'm guessing they won't be resolved soon, like how does moderation work if the reportee is on an instance that's defederated with yours but not the community instance?

Your options are either to create an alt to mod (or just move to the other instance) or to start the community on your home instance.

You could maybe start by posting stuff about korean football into a more general community, like [email protected]

Yeah, I know there's the football one, and I used to post a bit on the .world one, but it's a niche topic even within football, so I know I won't get much interaction from it.

You can only start communities on your home instance as far as I'm aware. However, you can mod remote communities. It just requires some hoops to go through. What you need to do is create an alt on your desired instance, create the community there, then make your main account a mod on it.
