I want to be part of the solution of the problems I see on Lemmy, that is why I opened my alt account at my current server to open new communities while fixing their issues.

I had been informed by the server admin that I should not post more than 5 posts in any local community which is guaranteed to kill my communities on my current server.

I am explaining the backstory here for people to understand my logic for my question.

So, I really appreciate any help here. If anyone can give me good servers to open my communities in.

My current communities:

News: to lower the load on Lemmy. World server and to improve the Fediverse health.
Europe: due to less than optimal moderation actions as documented in "power trippin " community.
Misinformation/ Disinformation: Because there is no community to post research and news about this topic.

Thank you all for your help. I really would appreciate any lead here.

Yes, The time frame is per day.

Here is the reason I don't support that limit:

From my experience in moderating the technology community at my main account, no one will post on my new community for very very long time.

How will news community for example survive on 5 news posts daily? As I said it will be granted to fail if it did not contain useful news posts that cover wide amount of topics.

I don’t dislike the Adam’s Family nor the Munsters, but I have blocked both communities because they each had a ton of submissions on the same day, and they were dominating my feed.

There’s nothing wrong with slowly submitting content. Submitting too much, too quickly makes it hard to distinguish from spam.

Just my opinion. I understand that you are looking to build something, and therefore you disagree on submission frequency.

I love eevee and its eeveeloutions, but the eevee community is spammy AF. I unsubscribed after a couple days. I am getting close to blocking it altogether.

I mod the women's hockey community on OP's instance, and post the results of all games (this past season there were only 6 teams so not a lot), but if there are two games in a day I try and put at least 6 hours between the posts so not to spam.

I suppose it depends on the purpose of the community. Narrowly defined communities like eeveelutions or The Addams Family don't really justify a glut of content in an hour.

OP seems to run a news community though, which is probably where they ran into a brick wall with the 5 post limit. There's a lot of news. And I guess you're not a very useful news community if you miss a lot of it.
