I tried finding Art instances to subscribe to after leaving Reddit and only found too which were for psychedelic art and erotic art. How do I make an instance for just Art and other instances for other genres? Unless does one exist?

    Go to lemmy.world, click the 3 bars to open the menu, click ‘create community’.

    Good luck, I hope you enjoy being a mod!

    You mean community? An instance is basically a server that connects to other instances, which themselves host communities on different topics.

    On the web interface, you can create a community on your instance (Lemmy.ca). Once other instances have indexed your newly created community, it will appear to every member of their instances

        Hey, no worries. I’m new too, and most of us here are learning as we go. For communities there should be a link along the top bar next to the “Create Post” button (screenshot of my instance attached). Click it and it will take you to a page where you can name your new community and fill out other details about it. Once you’ve got it created feel free to post a link here! I’m sure we all will be interested in following a new art community.
