They’re pretty basic right now. Remove comments/posts. Ban users from the community. And edit the appearance / sidebar of the community.

1. Determine the focus and point of the community. Write the description according to that so users know what to post.
2. Set up rules that go along with the focus. If your community is about Pikachu and someone posts cat pictures, that’s something that should probably be removed.
3. Post some content but not too much. Don’t want to make this your personal blog. You want others to participate.
4. Advertise it appropriately. Post to new communities. When there is another post and comments discussing your topic, mention that you have a community dedicated to it.

Getting a new community up and running is actually pretty difficult. Many of mine on reddit failed. But a few of them took off.

I buy mostly from bandcamp and Amazon.

I use Plex to host my music. It’s not super difficult to set up. And Plexamp is a pretty good player.

Plex also has the option for you to subscribe to Tidal, which I do. And the ability to stream my own music that’s not available anywhere on any stream plus almost everything out there that Spotify has is the best combo.

Jellyfin is another server like Plex, but I haven’t ever set it up so I don’t know how involved it is.

Yes but can you create communities in other instances?

Yes, very good point there.

Well there is the Chevy Bolt. Which is a very good deal on a pretty good range EV. But yeah… It’s still a Chevy

I had the same thought. They’d like to become leader but they’ve moved way too slow. They’re a good 10 years behind.

But they’re a big company. Perhaps they can turn things around.

It was a few days ago. But it looks like it’s stuck now when I try to create new ones. Probably too much traffic at the moment.
