That’s so cool you’ve started a new community. You should make a post from !earlychildhood@quokk.au explaining what it’s about (I know pretty self explaining really but you know) and it’ll land on the homepage. If it’s just Melbourne based then post it in !melbourne@aussie.zone. It’ll still end up on the home page.
Good luck with your new job tomorrow!
Something’s not quite right because your community is not showing up in the list of Aussie.zone communities. I’m an idiot when it comes to tech but maybe @Nath@aussie.zone can sort it out because he’s a champion at this.
The community is showing up fine for me. There may have been a little bit of a delay if this is the first time aussie.zone users have looked at Quokk.au communities. First-time federation can take a couple of minutes.
Ahh - now I see what you mean. It isn’t showing up in local communities because it isn’t a local community. That interpretation of “local” means “local to aussie.zone”, not local to Australia. As the community lives on Quokk.au, it isn’t local as far as Lemmy is concerned.
!melbourne@lemmy.world exists, for example - but it won’t show up on local communities, because it lives on lemmy.world.

I think they are running their own instance.
I think you are correct but I didn’t know how to put it into those words. If that’s the case then disregard everything I said.

Anyway, it’s fine, now. I didn’t do anything.
Oh ok. It’s not showing up on the list of local communities for me. I don’t know enough about this kind of stuff though.

Oh I think I get it now. Thank you for clearing that up.
