If your post meets the following criteria, it's welcome here!

  1. Open-ended question

  3. Not regarding using or support for Lemmy: context, see the list of support communities and tools for finding communities below
  4. Not ad nauseam inducing: please make sure it is a question that would be new to most members

Iโ€™m just looking for a place where I can post random things and generally have conversations if that makes sense?

I mean sure there are niche communities for specific things but I guess Iโ€™m just asking because I wonder if there is a cool spot that Iโ€™m unaware of.

Most users reading this suggestion won't even be able to post in that walled off instance...

The most relevant,

There's also other "ask" communities:

Might also be worth checking:

As they are also discussion based.
