Is there a community to find other communities?

Are you looking specifically for a community for communities? If not there’s also Lemmy Explorer.

The site above is indeed quite good

Sadly hasn’t been updated since 6 days ago. I don’t know why.

Yeah, it can take a while before new communities show up. Not much can be done about it I’m afraid.

It usually updates daily though. Check the burger menu at the top right. It shows you when the data was last updated. The README of the github page also says that “publish-pages” is failing, whatever that is.

I realize that but even those daily updates don’t seem to catch everything. When I tried to bring some life to a community I was interested in it took a few weeks of activity before it showed up on the list. It’s a great tool but it’s not perfect.

May I also plug fediverser.network? It is a crowdsourced database of communities, instances and subreddits to let people find the best alternatives for each subreddit.

Nice, didn’t know about this one.

!trendingcommunities is another one

That one is great, and I will also promote !newcommunities - which additionally hosts a “weekly active communities promotion thread”.

Also !trendingcommunities

I know !findacommunity exists, but I’ve blocked lemmy.ml…

Try… Unblocking it?

Do you not know why people would want to block lemmy.ml?

Oha , 1 hour ago

I do. I block communities instead of instances

I didn’t block lemmy.ml by accident

You could ask for communities on !communitypromo

It’s a bit of a combinations of [email protected] and find a !findacommunity
