What Lemmy communities would you like to share that we may not know about?

I’m noticing an influx of Reddit users today, maybe revolving around their weird bug they had today. I know this question pops up semi regularly, but for those just getting their foot in the door maybe we can help show them what else is out here on the Fediverse to help them get started.

I’ll kick us off, to any newcomers, I help run the following communities, and we’d welcome you to any of them. (Shameless self promotion I know, but I hope more people join in sharing theirs as well)

For help and support, taken right from the sidebar of AskLemmy here

An important one to kick off, we do have an entire community just for this over at !communitypromo (https://lemmy.ca/c/communitypromo) for a more long-running conversation

For new users, I hope you find some communities that you enjoy! For current users, share your favorite communities that new folks may be interested in! (Please use both the !@_ notation and give a link, to help our new fediverse people out in learning how it works)

I’ll never pass up a chance to promote !superbowl (Owls, not the NFL thing)

It’s always nice to see some jokes stick around, I hope when I die this is still a joke. (No sarcasm either, I truly love it and how much it annoys some people)

vynlwombat,

Wow, didn’t know this was a thing. I was watching What They Do in the Shadows recently and there’s a Superbowl episode.

TotallyHuman,

Does it actually annoy people? Wow, that makes it even funnier.

LemmyKnowsBest,

I already subscribed to those feathery fowls the first day I joined :-)

I also endose this recommendation!

!superbowl has everything for your owl related needs!

Love cats? Try owls, the cats of the sky!

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8c9692c8-033e-4f57-b299-c0f79af8cb35.jpeg

We’ve got cute owls, angry owls, stern owls, and silly owls.

White, brown, red, grey, big, medium, and small!

Find out where to meet owls or how to get started working with owls.

If you want hard science or fluffy photos, !superbowl has got it, and if we don’t have it, we’ll get it!

We’re pretty consistently in the top trending communities for a niche group, and there’s an ever growing number of fans checking in daily.

We need more people so we can properly talk shit

Ranvier,

Not a specific community, but check out everything on mander.xyz if you haven’t yet. Lots of great science related communities on there. It’s already a pretty active instance but would love to see the communities on there get even more love.

@scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech avatar

Wow I had no idea this entire instance existed, and there’s some heavy following too, I’ll definitely be subbing to some of those communities

Good rec, the mander.xyz stuff is great.

!moviesandtv is a pretty great community if you’re into movies and tv. It’s where a lot of the regulars from [email protected] went after the lemmy.film instance was shut down.

i guess satisfies the requirements:

  1. you like to share
  2. we may not know about
Kissaki,
@Kissaki@feddit.de avatar

Yes; I just found it important context/properties of them

Some may be interested in growing them, others not

Barely any content also makes it less clear what it is or will be about, to what degree - and if there even will be more content.

lemmy.world/c/tvtoohigh

Has sooo much potential. I can feel the memes flowing through it.

scrubbles,
@scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech avatar

and subbed, after being in /r/hometheater it’s good to see the core beliefs over here too. You’re TVs are too high

otp,

I think you meant “two hi” at the end there

TokenBoomer,

Great community

Huh. I am positive these people would say my TV is too high. But, I like it where it is.

If I’m standing in front of the screen, it is at eye-height. If I’m reclining back on the lounge, I am looking up at it without having to cram my neck downward.

So, I basically disagree with this whole community’s premise.

Hey, admin of programming.dev here

Heres a nice selection of communities from various of the topic instances including ours that might be nice for most people

  • !science - mander is the science and nature instance with this being one of their main communities
  • !programming - main community for the programming.dev instance which is the instance for programming
  • !gaming - main community for the lemmy.zip instance which has most of the game communities so far in lemmy
  • !software_gore - community that just got started up in programming.dev where you can post any software malfunctions you come across
  • !android - main community in lemdro which is focused primarily around android

edit, heres some more:

To mods here at !asklemmy, I know this is on the edge of rule 3 and 4, I’m seeing a lot of newbie questions though and was hoping this could head off a thousand new posts of users asking what and how to use lemmy. Actually, I’m going to add some of that to the post.

Other communities to subscribe to for more of this

!newtolemmy (for new users to ask any questions, including communities)

!communityPromo (same purpose as this post)
