Let's find some new communities!

This is a bot-fed community for finding new communities to subscribe to.

The bot's list is based on reading lemmyverse.net, sorting the resulting communities by (MAU divided by subscriber count), and posting the highest-ranking one that hasn't yet been printed.

It also reads Mbin and Piefed communities.

Enjoy!

Hey everyone. I thought it would be nice to keep a running list of generally high-quality communities available on Lemmy.

Probably I'm not the first person who has thought of this, but I haven't actually seen one. If this is useful, let me know, and I can keep it updated, or let me know any additions you think would be useful.

Going to refer to that post with the 20 active communities that are not news, politics, tech or memes: https://feddit.org/post/6554534

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's excellent, I added some of these.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Great!

Edit: I just see [email protected] potentially missing

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Just added it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

There's also [email protected] which could be interesting to add

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Done. That's an extremely rare example, as far as I can tell, of a "funny" community that is actually entertaining. IDK if this is just prejudice left over from what happened to the Reddit one, but I normally don't enjoy them even a little bit. But I like that one.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

We really do our best to post actually funny content, especially compared to the memes community that tend to be political opinions hidden

Great list!

Can you replace [email protected] with [email protected] as it has now replaced it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Absolutely I can.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

Thanks!

click here for a list of meme communities

MEMES, SOCIAL MEDIA REPOSTS, AND HUMOR (NON-POLITICAL)

Most of these are currently active. (except for the ones with a * which were less active last I checked). Sometimes politics sneaks in but that's not the focus.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

That's... A lot of memes

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Great list! Can you add:

[email protected]

Womens is for all things women, dad is for support on practical and emotional stuff you need a dad for.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Done and done. 👍

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Great thanks 😊
