As Lemmy starts maturing, there starts being so many communities out there that it's pretty hard to keep track. I've been browsing for about a month now, here's a list of popular communities I've subscribed to that others would find interesting!

Not many of these were noticeable while browsing communities so you may have missed some of these. I've roughly ranked these based on which I'd spend the most time on in each category.

Also note that I would add Kbin communities as well, but federation between Lemmy and Kbin is still not working well, so right now this post is for Lemmy communities only!

General Discussion

Humor & Memes

Technology

Pictures & Videos

Movies & TV

Video Games

And that's it. Whew. Obviously I might have missed some, but these are the most interesting communities for me.

Interested in finding more communities? Check out !newcommunities@lemmy.world to see people showing off their new communities.

Edit: Removed spaces from links, added xbox to games section

Edit 2: android community moved to android@lemdro.id, updated link

I still don't understand how to subscribe to groups that aren't on my instance. I sometimes was able to get it to work on my PC but it's impossible on mobile. This platform needs a lot of work.

It seems to be harder to subscribe to Lemmy communities from kbin.

[–] phosphorik@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago (4 children)

And the communities in the list aren’t clickable. Pretty low hanging fruit for reducing friction. (Like, the platform should automatically link them, not that OP should have.)

[–] Azzu@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

The communities in the list are all clickable from Lemmy. You're just from kbin and that site doesn't have that.

What do you mean? Simply open the community and subscribe?

[–] thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

The user you're responding to is on Kbin, which is stripping the links out of this post for some reason. They literally can't click through, that's why people are confused.

Hell yeah man, thank you!

Why the duplicate communities? My understanding was it shouldn't matter where I subscribe to "games" the posts should be the same.
