A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

Rules

The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World's rules. You can click the link but we've reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn't a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.

1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.

A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn't rulebreaking and we can't be supportive to them then we probably shouldn't engage.

B. No illegal content.

C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.

D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.

E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.

2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.

3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.

Formatting

Please include this following format in your post:

[link text](/c/community@instance.com)

This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't

You should also include either:

!community@instance.com

or instance.com/c/community

FAQ:

Q: Why do I get a 404?

A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.

Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?

A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

If you create a community, please try and populate it with content. I see a lot of new communities with 0-1 posts from the mod. That's not nearly enough to get people engaged - users are going to see that it's a ghost town and leave.

If you have enough interest to create a community, you probably know something about the subject matter, so PLEASE add some posts (5-10 would be a good start). Maybe some questions to get people talking, even popular reposts from other sites. It sucks shouting into a void, but if you don't do it, everyone else will also be shouting into a void.

Also please consider whether you need to create a community! When there are 100 million users of the site, there may be 1000 people who are interested in the same exact niche tabletop RPG as you, but there are <500,000 users here for now, so you'll be lucky to find 10. Consider creating a thread in a broader community (like boardgames) until you have enough people talking in the thread that it gets messy - then it's time to create a separate community.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk.

conservatism@piefed.social

This is a community for conservatism. Every other conservative space in the Fediverse has devolved into extremism or bigotry. This will NOT be tolerated. The rules are as such:

  1. No racism or ethnosupremacism.
  2. No antisemitism (including dogwhistles or using right or left politics to deny it).
  3. No misogyny (such as saying women should not vote).
  4. No queer-hatred (disagreeing with their lifestyle is not a blank cheque for vitriol or exclusion).
  5. No ableism.
  6. No ageism.
  7. No slurs.
  8. No extremism.
  9. No personal attacks or strawmen on others (ad-hominens). ARGUE IN GOOD FAITH!
  10. No spam.
  11. No flood.
  12. No trying to find loopholes in the rules.
  13. Moderator and the host instance has the final say. Follow the Terms of Service of PieFed and, even if you may disagree with them, the broader Fediverse as a whole.

Edited for accuracy.

We are a new community here in the Lemmyverse, but have been active on that other site (Reddit) for about 5 years now. If you are a Kindle Author, you why not work with us; post your book when it is free. As a reader, there will always be good free Kindle books for you to read here.

!askhistorians@piefed.social

A place to ask questions about history and life in past eras!

Hello. I created a community that is intended to replicate a subreddit I always enjoyed going through. This community is intended to be a more specialised version of asklemmy where you ask questions for which the answers are (hopefully) heavily dependent on where you're from. We do allow politics for now, but it cannot solely focus on a single country. ("Who is the most hated president in your country" is allowed, but "what do you think of <a politician>" is not)

Hope Lemmy doesn't mind.

I created a replica of a iconic Subreddit where pretentious jackasses strive through silly mostly innocuous clips of tv shows and screenshot of memes or fan art and act incredibly pompous, solemn, and pedantic towards it like it's some angtsy piece of iconography or a very taboo and problematic statement.

Lemmy, please give a pair of open arms to "Super Serious Family Guy"

!dungeoncrawlers@piefed.blahaj.zone

Hello, I made this community as a place for a subset of RPGs that usually end up in the shadow of more popular open-world RPGs, JRPGs and Souls-likes.

My definition of dungeon crawlers (that’s, admittedly, stretching the definition a bit), is as follows:

  • it takes place in a confined space (doesn’t need to be a literal dungeons!),
  • it puts a strong emphasis on combat and looting,
  • and it offers little to no story.

This includes a broad variety of games and genres, such as:

  • Blobbers (first-person party-based RPGs like Dungeon Master)
  • Traditional roguelikes with procgen, permadeath and one controllable character, e.g. Nethack
  • Some ARPGs like Diablo and King’s Field
  • Many unconventional indie titles like Osteoblasts, Ruadine or Divers (UFO 50 game)
    And there are definitely other notable examples that I forgot to mention!

My hope is that the community is broad enough to find its audience here but not too broad! Lemmy would really benefit from more focused communities I think.

!policiesforall@piefed.zip

Welcome to PoliciesForAll, a community for presenting and discussing policies that can be applied broadly by anyone, anywhere, and at any level. The policies should be designed to reduce corruption, improve bottom-up power, add/improve services, reduce financial waste, etc.

“Any arrangement that doesn’t account for bad actors, isn’t a system, it’s a dream.”

Community Rules:

  1. (C1) Be helpful. Collaboration and Constructive Criticism are welcome. Being an asshole is not.
  2. (C2) Try to use “feeling” language. Ex. ‘I feel that this proposal will have issues with …’, ‘My understanding of the situation is …’. I find it cuts out a lot of drama and misunderstandings.
  3. (C3) Policies should aim to be applicable to any group / city / location in the world.
  4. (C4) Avoid AI. If you feel strongly enough about a proposal, you should be willing to spend the time to write it up.
  5. (C5) Avoid discussing politicians or political active individuals (ex. Trump, Musk). There are other communities for that.
  6. (C6) Discussion of political theory is acceptable, as long as it is respectful.
  7. (C7) If the post is an link, please provide some context / summary / your thoughts about it.
  8. (C8) Links to articles should contain the original article title. Minor edits in [square brackets] for clarity/to reduce clickbait are likely fine.
  9. (C9) Provide credit / sources to others whenever possible.
    10 (C10) Label posts, if possible. Ex. [Idea] (solution in search of a problem), [Policy] (proposed solution to a problem), [Inspiration] (ex. an article), [Discussion], [Problem] (identified problem needing a solution).
  10. Instance Rules Apply (listed below).

How to Implement Policy (in order of Difficulty):

  1. Send an email to the local government (alt. call on phone)
  2. Show up in person to city council meetings, public forums, and community events
  3. Set a meeting with a local government official to discuss
  4. Build coalitions to amplify your message
  5. Leverage local media to amplify your voice
  6. Others?

Potentially Related Communities:

Instance Rules (as of 20260505):

  1. (I1) Remember the human! (no harassment, threats, etc.)
  2. (I2) No ban evasion on Piefed.zip or on other instances.
  3. (I3) No endorsement of hate speech
  4. (I4) No self-advertisements or spam
  5. (I5) No link-spamming
  6. (I6) Bots must be proportional
  7. (I7) No vote manipulation
  8. (I8) No content against the law in European Union territories (Finland).
  9. (I9) Any NSFW post must be tagged as NSFW.
