The gloomy sentiment around Reddit Inc. has failed to dissipate after its shares fell 50% from a February high, with volatile technology stocks under pressure.

    I’m trying to figure that out but I I have to make my own server? Or is it a sub on lemmy.world? There definitely a learning curve

      You don’t have to make your own server (unless you really want to!). Just start a community on a server you like.

      The one catch is that others can start a community of the same name and/or interest on another server and that gets a little confusing because then there are two, of course.

      I wish that communities could “federate” with each other from different instances but then that raises a bunch of logistics issues about how this is moderated, how is this presented to the users, etc.

      In my case I’m just posting a lot to already-created communities found in the Lemmy directory that’ve got a chunk of subscribers.

      If you’re going to start your own community for your own interest, I’d advise at least setting up on an already-populated Lemmy server (which you would have to be registered on) so it gets listed in the local directory.

      If you’re going to host the Lemmy server and your community, I have no experience on that front/I would imagine there’s a lot of SEO and self-promotion you’d have to do to get it off the ground.
