    It’s only hard to moderate if the topic is controversial and/or your instance admins don’t do anything to help.

    In 24 hours, go to https://piefed.social/communities and click on Create Local Community.

        You’ll be fine. We run a tight ship here.

    It’s not hard, and you have to wait for a day on piefed.social - this is purely for anti-spam measures.

        https://piefed.social/communities

        For context, it’s through here. “Create local community”. Oddly enough it’s actually not on the frontpage in anyway - maybe we should change that.

          Yes, I’ve been meaning to add it to the main navigation menu for a long time!

    Creating one is easy, the real challenge is getting engagement.

    I curate/mod several communities and the vast majority of posts are from me, although there are a lot of comments in the slightly less niche communities and even the more niche one do OK from a comments perspective.
