as a reddit refugee i mostly use lemmy, but sometimes i go back by a lack of alternative to some subreddit, which one you feel there is a need ?

EDIT1: there are some comments with communities that already exist, check it!

I agree, the communities are going started but there’s no way to organically find them

I used lemmyverse.net to find communities from the subs list I had on reddit, but I'll just have to remember to keep searching after some time has passed since my I won't have my reddit account for reference

Among what the others have mentioned, there is also sub.rehab - some results include communities that are not on Lemmy/Kbin however.

Fwiw. I searched 2 ways. Searching “ALL” I first searched for the subreddits I subscribed to on Reddit, usually partial word searches.

Then I searched ALL by topic very broadly, like “music”.

For both searches, I joined communities liberally that had a decent amount of subscribers. Figured those with momentum will probably rise up more over time. So far so good!

I know there is https://browse.feddit.de which is how I found some of the communities I'm subscribed to

I like lemmyverse.net more in terms of UI and usability

Some of the apps in development like Memmy have search functions
