Lemmy by default only has an on/off switch for admins. Either users can or can't create communities.

Your instance is lemm.ee, and as far as I can tell there is no custom limitation happening.

The side bar on the lemm.ee home page says:

About this site

Sign-ups are open

E-mail verification is required

Downvotes are enabled

User community creation is enabled

Image uploads are enabled 4 weeks after account creation

Image upload limit is 500kb per image

We have a policy for administration, moderation, and federation

We have a status page

Feel free to create or join communities for any topics that interest you!

It doesn't mention a time limit and says feel free to create communities, so you should be able to do it.

Yesterday I tried to create one but it said something about my account being too new. I guess I should try it after some weeks

Interesting! I see there is a community specifically for Lemmy.ee questions such as this, you could try there if you don't get an answer here?
