I wanted to create all the canadian telecom communities but then after I made 3 new ones the website wouldn't allow me register more. Is there a weekly limit I should account for?

I just want everyone to have a space on here to talk about communication services.

I’ve created 7 so no, no limit afaik. If you created them all within a short period of time you may have tripped a spam alarm on the instance. It might be worth creating them across different instances anyway.

Sounds like there might be a rate limit for creating communities. I tried to find the exact number for you but couldn't see it in the settings. I'll dig around to see if I can figure it out.

I would appreciate that! it seems like there is a 55 minute interval before you can make 3 more communities.

looks like there is an outstanding issue for this: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3452

maybe you're running into a different limit? i'm not sure.

Mostly just curious, what are you planning to do with the telecom communities? It felt a bit scattered even on Reddit since there are so few people. Could it be easier to create one central community for what you want to do with them?

redditors want control over as many spaces as possible because they have FOMO from the powermods on the other site.
