1709 readers

As with /r/411 this is where you ask what Community you're looking for but not finding. Perhaps a bit more helpful now that some communities are only found on certain instances.

Found/new community announcements - there are numerous "announcement type communities - see https://lemmy.ca/post/612532

There is also [email protected]

Before you request There are several resources available to find communities and resources and these have been pinned to the top.

there are community search engines at https://browse.feddit.de/ and https://lemmyverse.net/communities
there are numerous other "find a community" and "community announcement" .. communities (list stickied; if you find another, comment pls)
we will publish a Community Listing (at an as-of-yet-undetermined schedule)

Rules

Don't be a jerk or be deliberately unhelpful
Please post a clear easy to understand request for a community (or instance!)
Pls no NSFW requests - if you want to create /c/NSFW411 go ahead.
No posting of personal information
Please refrain from suggesting users should use search engines or directories.

I want some fun communities to browse after being tired of seeing bad news most of the time when I scroll through lemmy

"There's no escape; the only hope is the sweet relief of death."

I cracked up laughing when this little dude came up. I never expected that sort of humour in a new Nintendo licensed film tbh (though it was a welcomed set of laughs!)

I'll just list a bunch that I'm subscribed to that fit that description. Some aren't so active though.

I'll also mention [email protected] even though it's pretty dead, since a) it's pretty hard to find by searching, what with it being called Community, and b) I'm a mod there, mainly just because the previous mod left and I wanted to get rid of a sticky post from many months ago.

If anyone's running a community, please don't put "It's like X community on reddit" as the sidebar description. People that didn't use that community on reddit might want to join too, if they know what it's about!

Also; Jonathan, you broke up with him like a year ago. 8 months ago was the time to move on.

Cats, as usual.

Someone asked that recently on [email protected] and I listed a bunch of active communities that were not news, tech, or memes: https://lemmy.world/comment/10380313

To find more, click on "Communities" then "All" then "Top Week" then look through the pages and subscribe to ones that look good.

Since you're on lemm.ee I think that'd be: https://lemm.ee/communities?listingType=All&sort=TopWeek&page=1
On lemmy.world that's: https://lemmy.world/communities?listingType=All&sort=TopWeek&page=1
etc.

Well, everything I've seen from lemmynsfw.com has been pretty good.

Shameless plug for [email protected]

Here's some of the ones that keep me more on my Subscribed feed rather than all, to help keep things up beat. They're all pretty active and I haven't seen them in other comments yet.

No news here! Just fractal like art I make using images from CRTs.

[–] TehBamski 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Why is the community feed baren?

[–] Rebels_Droppin 2 points 6 months ago

I've been away! Got a large batch coming next week. Thanks for taking a look though!

What is it that you like?

If you don't want communities that require specific tastes, or any thinking:
Things like [email protected] are pretty general interest, but [email protected] or [email protected] might be more interesting.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 6 months ago

I'm fond of [email protected] and [email protected]

Join the modern pastime of forcing machines to hallucinate for your pleasure. Or just enjoy/complain about the art. So long as you aren’t rude, you’re probably welcome!
