We moved to !casualconversation@piefed.social please look for https://lemm.ee/post/66060114 in your instance search bar
Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.
RULES
- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
- Keep it clean and SFW
- No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

Well first off, welcome back!
What kind of content or communities (that's what we call subreddits,) are you looking for?
If you're looking for communities, I would suggest starting with this nifty website It has a visual database of... (checks notes) 28,178 communities (!?!) and 563 instances to choose from.
If you're looking for content, there's nothing wrong with searching all and new. Check out !communitypromo@lemmy.ca for help finding newer communities. And here is a long list of communities that aren't political, full of memes or tech.
And if you have any questions about Lemmy, head over to !newtolemmy@lemmy.ca for assistance.
Wow, thanks for the suggestions! 🙏 I'm interested in nature, music, conlangs, poetry, songwriting... those are probably the main ones.
Last time a big problem was my feed would literally not change for long periods... then it would update very slowly. I was wary of signing up to instances just to make my feed flow, because that would mean my feed would be full of things I'm not interested in. But I guess I just didn't find the instances I was looking for.
Will search again now!
Be default the sorting of your front page is likely set to "Active", try different sorting options to see if that changes things.
I manually set it to New, but your point still stands. I'll try some other settings too.
I would suggest setting your account to filter by "new" content. "Scale" is also useful. IIRC: It filters like "new" but uses an algorithm to show content from more of the subbed communities, instead of only showing content most recently posted, from your subs.
