Create new community: things to consider? (lemmy.world)

I have a topic for which I could not find a matching community. I can see in the UI that it's possible, and probably easy, to create a new community.

What happens next? Will I be up to my neck in mod work or other commitments/responsibilities? What aspects do I need to consider before doing this?

I would say it depends on what your community is about, If it's a topic that could get a good amount of users flow to it you'd probably have a lot of work on your hands and might need to add another mod or something but if it's that unique maybe only a few people would use it, I wouldn't bother with the mods and just run it yourself.
