In the past, we've made a thread in Beehaw support to ask people what they wanted, did some filtering of our own and then included it in our Community Survey.
I don't think we'll do one very soon considering not all of the communities are up yet.

Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

Thanks! I’ll keep an eye out for it.
There's nowhere to suggest new communities at the moment, but I'm sure there will be again at some point.
Last time it went like this: there was a thread soliciting new community ideas a while ago. The most popular suggestions were discussed by the admins and community mods, and any that didn't seem like they'd be a poor fit for beehaw were polled in the demographics & community survey that just wrapped up a while ago. Six of them got enough support to make sense as new communities: three have been added so far, and the other three will be added soon.
Expect the process to probably be a bit different next time as we continue to figure out the best way to handle all this.
Thanks!
So far it seems that the admins will make posts when they’re considering new ones. I think the need for committed moderators may be the challenge for adding new ones. You could always find a community on a different Lemmy instance or create a community on an instance that has that enabled.
