On Lemmy is it usually safe to create ones own community to post their own stuff on a smaller scale when there are other communities already available of the same topic? Or should we just go to the larger communities. To reduce spam. I feel like one side to this is obvious and the the other side is, to create communities to increase competition.
That’s unlikely, but having a community be in hands of admins you trust is important. If you feel your community will be sufficiently unique in some way (even just moderation style) then go for it. Why not? I have.
