    The community likely already exists and has been deleted by its creator. The creators account may also be deleted. Try yourinstance.tld/c/communityname to see if anything comes up. If so you may need to message your server admins from the sidebar

    Be sure to only use lowercase, and no underscores. The UI warning about this is broken.

        Wait that’s on lemmy.ml? Sorry, I missed that part. I think they don’t allow users to make coms, you may need to ask admins. I saw a thread to suggest new coms.
