Hey, so we are currently less than 100 users so having users create communities is currently disabled. For most things, other communities on the Lemmyverse are a better fit.
However, location-based ones make a lot of sense. It sounds like you'd like a Wellington one. Anyone else want a region specific one?
I'm on another instance but I'd love to see an Ōtautahi one!
If you missed it, I've now created a South Island one. https://lemmy.nz/c/southisland

I know I'm way too late, but seeing people ask for Otautahi makes me wonder if it would have been heckin cool to have Te Wai Pounamu, te whanaganui a tara and so forth for our regional stuff
We can't change the URL but I'm pretty sure I can change the displayed name if there's agreement. i.e. it will always be !southisland@lemmy.nz (unless we create a second community), but we can make the displayed name say something different. This is probably actually good for searching anyway.
Did you want to create a post in !southisland to see what the general consensus is?
Thanks for that, I've shared in Southisland , and also Wellington since that's my local.
