    OP is the sole mod of the comm and just joined lemmy today. The comm itself appears to be brand new (both of the exactly 2 posts are from same OP and posted in the last 2 hours). Can random users create comms on lemmy like on r*ddit? If so that's really stupid.

      Yes.

      Maybe, but I'd really like to see more Lemmy instances dedicated to specific topics, like how there is with Mastodon.

        I mean sure, a variety of interesting comms on specific topics sounds great to me too, but allowing randos to create any comm they want is exactly how r*ddit ended up with so many toxic subreddits. It just seems really unwise to me.
