Small note, for ask and casual communities, there are several local versions:
Thanks, a couple of new subs, and since laughs from Dad jokes, as well as groans from my wife…
My cute puppy: !sophie@piefed.social
movies/tv:
communities:
- !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl - find active communities
- !communities@ponder.cat - find (usually) active communities
other:
- !unix_surrealism@lemmy.sdf.org - a series of comic strips/panels. a fediverse original
- !cyberpunk@lemmy.zip - mostly about games and movies
Saving, to continue returning.
U can’t see me
Not new but there’s !micromobility@lemmy.world if you like bikes, ebikes, boards, motorcycles, etc.
!truecomics@midwest.social is cool and unique. Not as active lately though.
Did something happen to the main poster?
Yeah they had to focus on their studies
May I plug my community? !The_Heinlein_Society@lemmy.world would love more conversation. No current politics allowed :)
Feel free! Didn’t know about Heinlein, looks like an interesting author!
If anyone is looking for the replacement to a specific sub see these directories:
Are those still maintained? The replacement for meme is !memes@lemmy.ml, there are still some references to raddle.me, and probably kbin.social as well
Are those still maintained?
I don’t know. They could do with an update but are still decent enough guides for our purposes.
If you are interested in a project, it should be possible to create a page on the Join Fediverse wiki with a list of equivalents that would then be much easier to keep up to date. Probably link it in via “further reading” here:
I might at some point. To be honest, I would prefer if https://lemmyverse.net/communities could have a toggle for “politics”, “news”, “tech” and “memes”
That way the list stays dynamic rather than static, as the ones you listed above
Hello @tgxn@lemmy.tgxn.net, do you think that could happen? 😄
Wasn’t the last post 4 months ago?
Guilty.
No worries, hopefully BBQ enthusiasts will see this post.
If there aren’t enough, you can always cross-post your next post to !cooking@lemmy.world
Well BBQing is traditionally an American thing and it’s winter in the northern hemisphere
Time to find some Australian BBQers!
The desire paths one 😍
When you write them with an @ in front, you are referencing a user. A community is a Lemmy concept and you have to prepend them with a !.
Thanks

I’d like to see more niche communities take off. I want to talk home recording studio, but even if I start it, no one joins.
Please do! We’re slightly more active over at !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works
Subbed. I just bought a m audio m- track solo. I’m currently debating using waveform, Cakewalk, or reaper. Maybe I’ll make a post
Go for it!
Also… Reaper.
There is !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works, maybe you can try to post there to see if people are still interesting? Something as small as “how is everyone doing lately with their home studios” could start a discussion
Ew, a .ml comm
@can@sh.itjust.works s recommendation for !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works is much better
Let’s not grow anymore .ml communities
Yes, I share the feeling. For some reason the SJW community was not showing up in lemmyverse.net
I recently took over !musicproduction@sh.itjust.works too!
Ah, that’s promising!
Since others shared their own communities, here’s my simple one, looking for your stories:
Come by to share what made you happy!
Thanks for sharing! You might consider !casualconversation@lemm.ee, it’s also positive / chill content is is quite active
Already part of it!
I made some interesting discovery but (and it is a big but), BUT where are the animals! Lemmy has so many of them:
!superbowl@lemmy.world is actually better than its Reddit counter part
We have !bats@lemmy.world, !opossums@lemmy.world and !pets@lemmy.sdf.org and !cats@addAnyInstance and cute animals at !aww@lemmy.world and !aww@lemmy.ml and insects at !awwnverts@lemmy.world. We have a !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org and a collection of !taneggs@lemmy.ca and so much more…
Both !dogs@lemmy.world and !birding@lemmy.world are pretty active.
Thank you so much for !birding@lemmy.world
And thank you for the pets and bun_alert_system!
Self-plug: !bunnies@lemmy.world, also active, posts don’t overlap with !bun_alert_system@lemmy.sdf.org
Also !snakes@lemmy.world, though I don’t run that one.
We never got enough bunnies and snakes usually make beautiful pictures!
Superbowl has some excellent posts, and I’m like not even an owl guy (whatever that means.)
!crows@lemmy.ml is also fairly active.
Yes… I also love the comics there.
Thanks for tan eggs! I never knew I needed this! xD
Is this a thread for recommending communities that aren’t politics, news, memes, or tech? If so, here’s some comic-related communities:
- !outofcontextcomics@lemmy.world
- !eurographicnovels@lemm.ee
- !smbc@midwest.social
- !oglaf@midwest.social (generally NSFW!)
- !peanuts@midwest.social
And a few other miscellaneous communities:
dropping an Oglaf link without a warning is gonna make for a fun time on public transit
Good call, edited to add a warning
Indeed, that’s the spirit, thanks for the links!
