On reddit it was easy but here on Lemmy I cant see how to create a new community?

    If you’re on desktop, click Create Community at the top of the page.

    If you’re on mobile, click the menu icon (top right), then click Create Community.

      There is no create community icon. If I go directly to the create community page which I found by googling for it, it says “only admins can create communities”.

        It depends on which instance you’re a part of. Some allow you to make communities (lemmy.world for one) and others restrict it to only admins can make them (Beehaw as an example).

        In that case the admin of the instance you registered with has disabled community creation for some reason. You can either contact the admin where you registered, or sign up with another instance that does allow community creation
