I hate to admit this, but I’ve started using Reddit again. It pains me, but there is stuff I just can’t get here.

Same here. I like the idea of Lemmy but the decentralization makes it really difficult to find the content I want. Reddits centralization, while causing some problems, definitely made it easy to find communities. That lack of ease is what makes Lemmy not as easy to use for new people.

there should be a "find the community" or something, where u can post ur niche and ppl will link where they discuss that

Have you checked out !lemmy411@lemmy.ca? For some reason I don't see it mentioned or linked to much, but it's basically that, which I think would feel much more approachable to new people than pointing them to tools like Lemmyverse (as much as I do really appreciate it).

Another good one for sharing communities you've stumbled across would be !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca.

Saved both communites, but don't tell me this. Tell it to: @JaymesRS@literature.cafe
