I don't think you can on Beehaw.org. All communities on your instance need to be created by an admin.
Probably a good thing overall, considering the thousands of dead subs that are going to be all over the place come Monday.

abraxas said he was a typescript vet just earlier, maybe we can coax him into having a look? xD
Worth a shot at least.
EDIT: Just shot him a message
You're awesome man! This is direly needed. I'm just wondering how on earth to publicize this before the madness that hits on Monday.
Any chance you could find a place to fit this in the join lemmy site and do a pull request before then? I know it's a lot to ask, but it would be huge.
Maybe you could bring it up with the Kbin devs? I'm sure it wouldn't be too crazily difficult to have it work similarly over there. Just need to swap /c/ out for a /m/. Probably similar needed over here to translate /m/ to /c/ too.
Actually, the full URL is pretty easy to use if you know what you're doing (which of course, everybody is trying to figure out right now).
Just switch the search from "Community" to "All". Image from another thread
Can confirm bang-prefixed is broken, c-prefixed works. At least from the website UI.
I'll put up a github issue for it, maybe somebody can look at that
Yeah, definitely a papercut I expect we'll see a lot of users hit. Early days yet, and more dev manpower needed. I'm learning TypeScript and Rust as fast as I can to help out xD
It's not a priority for the devs, for very understandable reasons. They just finished a HUGE performance pull into the github for lemmy-ui (the web platform). Anybody willing to make a new app or improve the existing one is absolutely welcome to do so.
