Thanks! I had never heard of pixelfed.

This. We're all bashing on reddit but the reason why I went to reddit and then here was to take a break from meta-owned social media. They don't only take and sell our data, they also exploit small businesses and creatives by making them pay or post several times a day for "visibility" (translation: not to be shadowbanned) without providing anything back.

Thank you! I was sure there were already some and I just didn't find them.

Lemmy's all fine and dandy but without communities like r/depression it's back to keeping everything in and hiding to cry for me because I can't talk about how I feel irl and can't afford therapy. There are probably billions of people in my case. I'd like to make a depression, or rather a more general "vent without being told you should go all the way and rope because there's no place for sadness and self-doubt in late capitalism" community on Lemmy but have zero experience making and moderating a community. Is there a fellow desperate case who'd be up for helping me create and manage it?
