    Creating a community is super easy.

    The initial moderation is also quite easy, though you need to dedicate some time to build the initial userbase and write clear, concise, reasonable rules.

    What I can tell you from personal experience though is that maintaining a community after it grows is hard, and time consuming, and you’ll absolutely need extra moderators and moderator tools.

    Right now, today, on Lemmy no communities are big enough for this to be a concern. However, Reddit also started small. Be prepared.
