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)

Is there a way to change the links so that when you click on them, they open in the same instance that you're logged into? So that you can actually subscribe to them?
Lets see: !wowthislemmyexists[email protected]
I don't think so. Because the community doesn't technically exist on that other instance.
e.g. if I went https://lemmy.one/c/wowthislemmyexists you get: 404: couldnt_find_community
.. even IF wowthislemmyexists is SUBSCRIBED to on lemmy.one.
That doesn't work... and the link [email protected] still directs me to "https://lemmy.ca/c/wowthislemmyexists" rather than "https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected]"
oh hey - that works: https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected]”
Problem is I can't change the URLs above for everyone, there's no concept of a wildcard e.g. https:///c/[email protected]
Plus, if your instance hasn't already sub'd to the remote community, will that trick even work?
Actually, here's the trick:
[some community](/c/[email protected])
So:
[WowThisLemmyExists](/c/[email protected])
Gives us this link: WowThisLemmyExists
Which links to that community but within the instance you're currently in!
(many thanks to the Lemmy Project Chat on Matrix!)
very excellent, Ill fix tonite.
