List of popular communities you should visit!
List of popular communities you should visit!
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!

Edit 2: android community moved to android@lemdro.id, updated link
33 0 Replybtw the spaces in the links provided by OP effectively break the links if you're not based on the community's home server. Would be really great to get this updated.
19 0 ReplyCould you remove the spaces for people who aren't browsing from .world?

11 1 ReplyI can't claim to understand this tech yet, but I feel like so many of these communities being on the same instance isn't the way it's supposed to be.
10 1 ReplyBtw I made this userscript (Lemmy post) for anyone who's as annoyed of links not going to their home instance as I was! It rewrites all links on all websites to always point to your home instance.

4 0 ReplyMy addition to this would be !lemmyapps@lemmy.world, for a good list of apps you can try out. Note that while it says apps, this also covers browser extensions and PC web apps.
...also note I have never linked before, so I have no idea how that is going to turn out.
