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!

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 to see people showing off their new communities.

Bebo,

I am using “connect for lemmy” app. Can someone please explain how to join communities? Just signed up and very confused.

XtendedImpact,

When you open communities you can use the three dot menu in the top right to subscribe to them

Bebo,

Hey thanks!

Mintyy,

I’ve used connect for a while now and while I’m pretty happy with it for browsing, I’m not in love with how difficult it is to join communities. Especially when you want to join a bunch of communities if your account is new.

I found it way easier to join a bunch of communities in Chrome (which is made a lot easier on the actual lemmy website) and then coming back to connect to browse.

It’s less of an issue if you just wanna join the odd community, but if you are looking to add a bunch I wouldn’t bother trying to do so through connect.

randomwither,

Connect is suuuuuper unstable for me at the moment, but I find it way easier to navigate than Jerboa. As someone said, you can use the three dots at the top right to subscribe.

Instances can be super confusing, but as Lemmy grows, it’ll be simpler to figure things out 😊. Don’t worry, it’s a learning curve for all of us!

Bebo,

Definitely a learning curve. At least sort of figured out finally how to join communities. What’s sort of confusing for me now is communities with same names but different instances (is that the right word?). Then I have check back to see whether I have joined it or is it a different one. This part is super confusing for me at present because I came across many such instances.

Batpool23,

Hell yeah man, thank you!

nouman,

Nothing like a good old awesome lemmy list

Anyone knows communities for maths homework help?

SloppyPuppy,

Saving this

Zrob,

This was extremely helpful. Perhaps this can be posted up for new users looking for “default” communities

freamon,

I 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.

orientalsniper,

As long it’s not a single one, we need 3 big main instances to reach critical mass.
