and are there already ~~sublemmies~~ Lemmy communities for them? If not, why didn't you create one? ;)

mostly because being a moderator to many communities may eventually become alot of work.
i think it's noteworthy that communities should ideally be kept alive and active. maintained on an ocassional basis. and perhaps some outside advocacy/publicity on the net.
more will be created in time. it's also about what might be popular with the existing community.
it's hard to think of good possible replicas off the top of my head. if anyone does.. go ahead and make it. totally unique communities could be interesting too because they don't suffer from brain drain to one or two giant forums.
i'd like to see a community dedicated to shoutouts for discovering new, interesting, or obscure communities. pretty much c/announcements.

Lemmy communities? You can just browse them on the corresponding tab… Or did you mean communities in general?

yeah, you can browse all the lemmy communities.. but it's time consuming and tedious to go through all of them.
