Find another cool community? Leave a comment :)
There’s also this universal community search tool you can try using. If you find a community, just copy its URL and paste it in /search to subscribe to it here. This just goes to show that while there might not be many local communities here on lemmy.one yet, the beauty of the fediverse means that doesn’t matter!
Is there a community for users of FreeDOS?
For all things Futurama https://lemmy.world/c/futurama
Are there any UK-specific communities?
There’s a UK-specific instance: lemmy.org.uk
So far the only community looks to be [email protected] but I expect there’ll be more soon.
Did you find [email protected]?

Some should soo make CasualUK
Seems we’ve now got ukcasual on lemmy.world! (I’ve not worked how to link to communities yet!)
Does anyone know of any communities for pigeons or capybaras (or tbh any other weird-but-cute critters)?
Edit: adding some as I find them:
Work Reform & Unionizing! - [email protected]
If anyone else is missing Breaddit as much as I, [!bread] ([email protected]) (I think, bear with me as it’s my first time trying to link to a community) seems like a good place to start.
Is this link better? https://lemmy.ml/c/bread
If you link it like this: Bread
it will be load that community on the user’s own instance, so they can just hit subscribe instead of having to search for it back on their own instance.
[Bread](/c/[email protected])
Where are my fellow C programmers? And those who prefer Basic ( qb64 and Gambas welcome too)?
This, but data scientists!
There’s also [email protected] , over at programming.dev, which is a software engineering/prorgramming/computer science focused instance.
How about [email protected] ?
Does anyone know if you can hide posts in Jerboa? This post and a lemmy.one welcome post are pinned at the top of my feeds, and they take up a lot of room visually. I’d also like to hide posts I’ve already seen, as on smaller communities I only want to see the occasional new posts, not see the same post from 3 days ago every time.
We’re open for all!~
I think the reddit hug of love is affecting things today on the 12th.
Just a general question, on a mobile device is using your browser or an app the better experience? And if using an app is Jaebra the one most people use?
I prefer the browser to apps personally, this is actually one of the main reasons I like Lemmy over Reddit and it’s unusable mobile view. You’ll find plenty of mobile app users here too and it sounds like it works fine, I’ll just caution that some (all?) of them sound like they’re feature-incomplete, so if you ever think something is missing from Lemmy, double-check on the website first, because it might just not be added to the app yet.
I was going down the universal search tool list, subscribing to the communities that I was interested in, and I ran into an issue trying to sub to some of the communities. Thankfully I was able to quickly find the answer - anything that is on the block list under https://lemmy.one/instances you are not able to subscribe to from this instance.
Glad to see that Lemmygrad is on the blocklist.
Thanks you, subbed to a lot of them. The more content and more posts, the better. :)
Is there a community for soccer?
There’s one here, but I don’t seem to be able to subscribe to it. https://lemmy.ml/c/soccer
Time to wait for the cat ones
https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected] you mean?
