I have tried to find one all over lemmy and have had no luck aside from the odd mycology community. While lichenology does fit within the borders of mycology I think it's a subject that warrants and is deserving of its own community. I have left reddit now and the sub I miss most is r/lichens, its a small but dedicated community and I think we could have that here. I'd love to see more people learn about lichens.

I hope it’s called /c/lichensubscribe

Damn, how could they not have taken the name

Start the lichenology community and post to the mycology community too.

I wasn't sure if it was kosher to just start a community or if it had to be approved and whatnot.

You should be good, just let me know the name you pick.

Should be up now, I kept it simple and just called it 'Lichen'

No need to be approved! Please, 100%, would love a Lichens community!
