I had this happen on mobile when I tried to use emojis in the title, so I was thinking perhaps itβs an unhandled error for invalid characters in the title? When I tried again without the emojis, it posted right away.
I'm just trying to do "Stargate", just the one word, lowercase in the name field.
Hmm, not sure then. Also, so sorry about the repeat comments! Kept telling me the comments didnβt go through π΅βπ«
Figured it out, the community was made and I can get to it by manually typing the URL, but that page also says it was deleted by the creator and doesn't show in community search. So I think it's in recycling bin limbo and failing to generate an error.
I would hope the recycling bin is emptied eventually so the communities can be recreated, but according to this it doesn't look like it, which is dumb because that means anyone can create and delete a community just to prevent the name from ever being used.

Happy to hear it! There have been some mutterings of this instance struggling the last few hours - that must be tied in. Would certainly explain my comment shenanigans too
