So I’m very new to the Fediverse. I really don’t know much about creating communities here. But I was looking for a community focused on Human Services/Direct Support and couldn’t find one…so I figured why not learn the Lemmy interface more and just create one!

I don’t want to be a mod. I’m more of a lurker, and am not interested in policing anyone’s speech. I mostly intend to back off, unless I see something particularly terrible. I’m very open to suggestions on, well, pretty much everything here. And if you want to be a mod, I guess message me and we can talk.

I hope this becomes something useful to folks working in Human Services!

    I was a lurker when I was on Reddit but when I joined the fediverse I dived in and became an instance admin.

    Lemmy and the rest of the fediverse give me that early 2000s peoples internet vibes. I had to be part of it.

    I hope your involvement and satisfaction grows.

    Thanks for joining, contributing, and sharing!

      Hey! Thanks! I made the community because I couldn’t find similar communities for my field. I hate marketing and such. Can you recommend some good ways to promote the community to folks who won’t view it as spam? Thanks again!
