Searching Lemmyverse is good for finding communities. !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl is also a nice tool for finding new places.

I posted this on the other site but I thought I'd copy over here too, lots of good communities around to subscribe to if you want a more casual/fun frontpage that isn't just tech news, elon musk, or politics.

note: all of these communities have posts. If they appear empty, it simply means nobody on the instance you use has visited them before (or you might have blocked them and forgot, I've done it before, lol)! I will try to keep this thread updated over time.

Note: if you wish to auto-subscribe to all of the communities below, I have a post in the comments that describes how to do so.

My rough criterion was:

  • Of interest to me or a wide audience
  • Has a decent amount of activity
  • Casual / fun / interesting / cool / funny / chatty communities.
  • 0 negativity/negative vibes, news, politics, overload of tech or niche tech news/info, etc.

Cooking, food, drinks

Generally mostly nice pics of food:

Gardening / Plants
Keyboard enthusiasts
Knitting, Stitching, Crocheting, etc
Reading and Writing
Sport

Honestly there are so many sport communities around - if you search Lemmyverse for popular sports, you will almost certainly find more.

Nice/Interesting/Funny pictures

Animals

Literally just pictures of cute animals.

Comics
Flags
Maps
Memes

Meme communities in general can overload your feed, so keep that in mind.

Board Games / Table top games

The ttrpg.network instance has a lot of communities based around table top gaming & RPGs.

Chess
Crosswords / Daily games
Video Games

Knowledge (e.g history, science)

Space

TV (television), movies, film

Music

Lots of music communities on Lemmy. Search Lemmyverse for genres of interest for more, this definitely isn't exhaustive.

Note that music communities generally have low comment counts, from my experience.

There's also:

These communities have been removed from the list for not maintaining activity.

Tails: A Place on Lemmy for Mastodon Posts (endlesstalk.org)
submitted 7 months ago by freamon@endlesstalk.org to c/newcommunities@lemmy.world
18 comments fedilink

Given the shared underlying protocol, I didn't like that if I saw something interesting on Mastodon, and wanted to post it on Lemmy, I'd have to screenshot it and/or re-attribute it to me rather than the original author.

Tails is an experimental community. Instead of announcing just what a Lemmy user has posted, it announces what a Fediverse actor has posted. This means that, so far, it's featured posts from Mastodon accounts like Mr Lovenstein, warsandpeas, George Takei, Low Quality Facts, and other interesting people. Lemmy users have been able to reply to the author, and have also replied to those other Mastodon accounts that responded.

You can see for yourself at !tails@lemmon.website

(the usual rules apply: if you're the first person on your instance to do this, you'll likely get a blank screen or an error. Wait 10 secs or so, press refresh, and you should have it).

Ancient Aliens [warandpeas@mastodon.social] (files.mastodon.social)

Image transcription: 4 panel comic by War and Peas: 1. two pharaohs from ancient egypt are standing in front of a pyramid whose construction is nearing completion. One says to the other, "You've outdone yourself this time, Babuthep." 2. he continues, "You'll be remembered for this throughout history!" 3. "It's a testament to human ingenuity." 4. time jump to the present day. At an alien conference, someone speaks to an audience, "It was aliens!"

The real DnD fantasy ... [evacide@hachyderm.io] (endlesstalk.org)

The real fantasy element of Dungeons & Dragons is pretending that you have a group of friends who all get along with each other and can manage to meet regularly for four hours at a time.

cross-posted from !tails@lemmon.website - a lemmy community that natively features mastodon posts (and their replies) so we're not using screenshots, and lemmy users have the opportunity to respond to the original author.

edit: I realise now that the cross-link won't show up correctly, 'cos no-one on sh.itjust.works is subbed to tails, but if anyone ever does, I'll try again with a different post.
