  • Wow, thank you for this detailed comment, it’s a really fun read for someone who wasn’t around at the time. The history of the internet has always been a fascinating subject for me, and this is probably the most honest and down-to-earth summary of Usenet and that subset of internet culture that I’ve read so far.

    You’ve made me feel nostalgia for something I’ve never directly experienced, that’s the mark of an interesting story, not of the ramblings of a misty-eyed old fart!









  • You can only start a community on the instance you joined. As has been pointed out, people from other instances can still interact with it.

    You don’t really need any guide, it’s super easy to create a community, just hit the link at the top of your page. Give it a name (this will be its address, and can’t be changed, so your community would be name@feddit.de) and optionally a display name. You can also add an icon, a banner, and a bio. After that, you just have to start sharing your community and regularly posting.

    As of now, community numbers are small enough that I imagine any moderation work to be extremely minimal to non-existent.
