How to find matching communities? (discuss.tchncs.de)

When coming from reddit, one has a list of subreddits and is probably looking for similar communities. Could we help that search somehow? It is harder than on reddit because matching communities are distributed across multiple instances.

Would it make sense to maintain an awesome list? Or a separate community "looking for community"?

Ah I'm a big dum dum, I had geo-restrictions from an earlier version. 💩 Should work now, thanks 🤣

Awesome, good to hear :) I'm hoping to add more functionality including:

Show Suggested Instances to Join
Score Instances and Communities and sort according to activity/trust.
Remove instances that are blocked by (more than 10?) other instances.

I've also put the source over at https://github.com/tgxn/lemmy-explorer :)
