Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

Couldn't you just create the communities on an existing server? Obviously it would be good to not be on the biggest one to help spread out the community, as that's the point of federation. If it's on a server with existing users, you're more likely to get members join as it will show in their local feed.
that's a good idea as well! might consider that.
How would I do that? I that each and every community had to be manually approved by the server administration
I think it depends on the instance. So check the instance rules that you are considering. Then message the mods and ask, I reckon!
