      Be mildly competent at computers… or know someone who is and willing to help you.

      Either setup your own instance, or find an instance that’s already setup that you like and the owner will let you add stuff to the database…

      Start a community…

      Read here… https://github.com/rileynull/RedditLemmyImporter

      Success! now you’ve migrated your subreddit to lemmy!

      (This is a little sarcastic. I’m not good at legit guides. But it is possible!)

      Edit: tweaked phrasing… doing this to general public servers would be unlikely.

      Well, on Beehaw you cannot create new communities, but you certainly can be made a mod of one even from another instance. Find the ones you want and ask the current mods of it.

        Why can’t we create communities on here? Do the Beehaw admins specifically restrict this? Thanks, by the way.
