I like this platform, and hope it succeeds, however I have a question for the community - what are everyone’s thoughts on creators? I am one, for transparency-sake, and I am pretty sure we are not wanted here, since most of us have Adventures/ Art / Battle maps / Patreons / Kickstarters / Products to sell, even though we frequently give a lot of stuff for free to the community. Thoughts?

    I, myself, have very limited time availability, and I really doubt I would have enough technical knowledge to set up an instance myself. I am also already running 2 discord communities… so right now running an instance on top of that is just not an option. That leaves me I guess just to wait and see if someone else creates something like that. Risking blurring lines on instance rules, investing my time and energy into a community that will likely ban me isn’t particularly appealing either :(.

      That makes a lot of sense, hosting an instance is definitely not for everyone. But from what @Stoneykins@lemmy.one posted, it seems things like that would be allowed here. But it might be a good idea to bring this up in !lemmyworld@lemmy.world That is the general lemmy.world community, there we can get input from the instance admins.

      Well, based on the linked rules, I guess it should be fine here.

        Great idea about bringing it up in lemmyworld for the admins! I might actually do that tomorrow! Thanks!
