What sort of communities are you looking for, OP? Maybe we can give you a hand getting settled in.
As an aside; i really like
!trendingcommunities@feddit.nl
It's a great and easy way to get an overview of new communities or communities with some new activity. I check interesting communities and if i like them, i subscribe. There is also a community where you can ask for a certain community. I asked once and someone replied and pointed me to an interesting community:
!requests@lemmit.online
Yeah trendingcommunities is great! Was very proud of !knitting@lemmy.world for getting in there last week lol.
That second link though is the bot spam instance where you can request a subreddit for it to just mindlessly repost. Most people already have it blocked. There are probably places to request real communities too but I don't know them off the top of my head!
Haha, yep, joined the knitting one, even though i'm on a hiatus. Still nice to see people show off their work.
I had no idea about that instance; i joined once, asked for a community and someone immediately shared one, so i thought it was very helpful. Thanks for letting me know!
