      Be mildly competent at computers… or know someone who is and willing to help you.

      Either setup your own instance, or find an instance that’s already setup that you like… (ask around if you’re unsure, but most people generally like beehaw.org [the instance you appear to be from])

      Start a community…

      Read here… https://github.com/rileynull/RedditLemmyImporter

      Success! now you’ve migrated your subreddit to lemmy!

      (This is a little sarcastic. I’m not good at legit guides. But it is possible!)

        Just wanted to add that not all instances are allowing new community creation, including Beehaw.

        Well, that is an interesting script. I wonder how many will come across? Maybe they will pull the top 20% or something.

      Well, on Beehaw you cannot create new communities, but you certainly can be made a mod of one even from another instance. Find the ones you want and ask the current mods of it.
