A guide to creating new communities? (feddit.de)

I'm new to Lemmy, your typical Reddit refugee, and I'm missing some of the more niche subs I followed. I would like to start one or two of those here, but I'm a bit intimidated.

As I understand it, if I start a community I'm also the moderator. What kind of work does that entail?

Can I only create a community on the instance I joined, or can I also create a community elsewhere?

Is there a guide for creating new communities out there, especially for people who don't know much about the technical side of Lemmy?

Thanks!
