Hi folks! I created a directory that I will update over time as communities get built. If you would like me to add your city/town to the directory if you have created one, post on the Lemmy and I will add you in.
For some reason I can’t figure out, I can’t access your community from kbin. https://kbin.social/m/ontario_community_directory@lemmy.ca is a 404, despite this working for other communities on the same server. I wonder if there could be a difference in length limit, since the name is so long?
At any rate, I created @Waterloo (!Waterloo@kbin.social, https://kbin.social/m/Waterloo) for the Waterloo region. Consistent with the Reddit sub of the same name, that includes the entire region. Kitchener and Waterloo are practically one city (as well as Cambridge to a slightly lesser degree).
Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I will create an alternative one on Kbin. For some reason the Canada Lemmy doesn’t get along well with other instances.
For example I posted a post yesterday to Lemmy world through Lemmy.ca, and it had way more upvotes and comment on Kbin. They simply just were not visible on Lemmy.ca
Are these just cities listed by population, or a list of actual communities? For example, Oshawa is listed but no link and I couldn’t find the community, but Vaughan is listed and there is a community: https://lemmy.ca/c/vaughan
