I notice a dearth of sports communities on beesaw. Am I missing something or should I create one?

    There’s the Sports community you can use for NFL discussion if you specifically want it to be on Beehaw. It open to any and all sports discussion.

    Otherwise you’d need to create it in another instance that federates with Beehaw.

        Beehaw is an instance that doesn’t allow you to create your own communities. They want a smaller amount of communities that are more active rather than a large amount of smaller, less active communities.

        Other instances let you create communities, but that’s why I’m on Beehaw. It’s a bit more curated and I feel cuts out a lot of noise I don’t need.

        So yeah, I’d say just use the Sports community if you want to stick with Beehaw but if this instance isn’t meshing with you there’s no harm in making one in say, Divisions by Zero for example. They allow you to make communities and are federated with Beehaw so people here could still interact.

        Nope, only admins can create communities on beehaw, and there’s already a sports one. Luckily you can find or create one on another instance!

            Probably, but I highly doubt that they’d go for it at this point. I imagine that they’d probably just politely direct you to the extant sports community!
