Relaxed section for discussion and debate that doesn't fit anywhere else. Whether it's advice, how your week is going, a link that's at the back of your mind, or something like that, it can likely go here.

411-style community for finding communities? (programming.dev)

Seems like we could benefit from a large community specifically oriented towards helping others find communities for a specific topic. Does anything of that sort exist on beehaw or elsewhere?

EDIT: I will be including communities that fit this bill here as I find them so others can see them:

!lemmy411@lemmy.ca <--- this one fits the bill most closely

!wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

!newcommunities@lemmy.world (defederated from beehaw, unfortunately, but potentially useful for others)

You mean something where you ask for community recommendations from other people? Or just a searchable community index like lemmyverse.net?

[–] technologenesis@programming.dev 3 points 2 years ago

yeah I was thinking some kind of 411 sub, something to use once you've tried the community index

Doesn't make sense to include a lemmy.world community as long as we aren't federated with them imo

i'm a visitor from distant reaches of the fediverse so i'm including it for fellow travellers

Just an FYI that the links you've provided in the OP don't work the way you expect them to.
