NTA. I can't see how someone could've possibly interpreted this as a prank

Idk what I expected when i posted it but certainly not this

(im on mander becoz Jerboa isn't letting me log into lemmy.world for some reason)

I recently started a community for the author Stephen King

!stephenking@mander.xyz

I've seen your comment. I was logged out and it works now that I've made an account on lemmy.world and signed in. Thanks!

Idk if I'm allowed to post this here or not, (lmk if I'm not and I'll delete) but I also just created a sublemmy for Stephen King:

Physical paperbacks. I can never seem to get as engrossed in audiobooks or e-books as I do with physical copies, so i read physical ones ever when traveling.

I had been trying from lemmy.world while signed out and it works now that I've made an account and signed in! Thanks a lot!

We're a brand new community with only one post by myself, one test post, and a post by an irl friend i invited here. We aren't losing out on much.

I have a big book with a bunch of his stories but I just cannot process what I'm reading. My brain just refuses to decipher the words into meaningful information.

it's still not working..

For me it started working when I logged in

Can you please explain how I can link them up?

Thanks! Those two are a bit too long to finish before I get back so I'll read them after returning. I'm going back 20 days later but I'll only be free for the next few days or so

UPDATE: It works after signing in! Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the response, Salamander. Firstly, I have another reason for wanting to move over to lemmy.world. As many people are shifting over from Reddit (particularly r/StephenKing), I want my community to attract members from the subreddit who are looking for a new home. And lemmy.world, being one of the biggest instances, will probably do a better job at that. Since I'm mainly trying to attract old users from r/StephenKing, using a general-purpose instance instead of one dedicated to something specific would probably be a better idea. Secondly, regarding the last paragraph of your reply, it will be much harder to migrate when we will (hopefully) have more members if you end up restricting community creation.

Another thing I wanted to ask you about: how exactly do I delete this community? From what I've seen online, I think only admins can delete them. Could you please help me with that?

got nothing against vegans it's just when they try to force it into others
