there's no communities for my niche interests!!!

more like "i want a ready-made community where other people already putting effort into posting cool and intersting stuff, and all I want to do is sit on my ass and shower posts generously with """muh upvotes™""""

New user here. Where should I create my community? Are there servers or groups or something that I should review first? I don't know the difference between a server and .world or .ml or whatever.

[–] Preflight_Tomato@lemm.ee 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

.world and .ml are servers. I’d recommend choosing a server related to your topic (programming.zone if it’s comp sci related, for example), and try to avoid piling into the largest ones (.world and .ml, etc.).

Thank you very much for the response

Is reddthat a server? Should all of the communities inside a server be related? I'm asking because I want to create communities but I don't know where it's appropriate to do so. For example, if I want to create a sub for venting about family, is it okay to do that on any server? Or do I have to go digging to find the "correct" server?

Yes, you could create a community on reddthat (if that server allows for new communities to be created and hasn't disabled that feature).

No, they don't need to be all related. A server admin likely would tell you "hey please don't create this one here, because this server's focus is xy".
