I’m curious where everyone else has found communities to subscribe to on Lemmy.
The Lemmyverse explorer is a great resource.
There’s also this community [email protected] where you can ask for specific communities with certain characteristics and people reply with communities that fulfill them.
I use https://lemmyverse.net/ since I’m on a smaller instance and a lot of communities just don’t appear for me until I’ve manually searched for them.
Not sure how exactly it is on desktop (probably not too different), but on your instance’s mobile site, there should be an option—probably in a hamburger menu or whatnot—labeled “Communities”. Select that and the next screen will have three options: " Subscribed", “Local”, and “All”.
“Subscribed” lists all communities you’re subscribed to (naturally), “Local” shows all the communities that is hosted on your instance, and “All” shows all communities regardless of instance provided they are federated.
