When I try to create a community, the create button turns into a spinning icon after I click it and it just sticks like that, forever. I tried like…15m ago and that attempt is still spinning. I’ve tried multiple times, its not just one bugged attempt.
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.
