You can do this with /api/v3/community/hide, or in the database by setting community.hidden. Unfortunately this is not available from lemmy-ui yet.

Not sure if that feature was known to everyone, so sharing this as its own post.

Are you aware of !newcommunities@lemmy.world ?

[–] SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No, ty for that. However, that relies upon communities wanting to be found, doesn't it? I'm more concerned with communities that may be forced to keep things quiet due to being out of political favor, social acceptance, or even legality. Especially with the incoming administration, I fear that may be more of a valid concern than in the past. Discussing how to get an abortion in Texas, for an easy example of something that might be targeted.

Indeed. Don't worry, your instance will be fine, nobody is changing any feed for anyone, and I'm sure @rikudou@lemmings.world would ask the instance member feedback before doing anything.

!AskUSA@discuss.online might interest you too
