Communities on lemmy world - https://lemmy.world/communities

Also, I forget who originally posted this, but somebody made a website of all (or most) of the lemmy instances out there and all the communities on them that's been really handy - https://lemmyverse.net/

I'll second this. Once I found an app that I liked and actually loaded properly most of the time (shout-out to Liftoff) I went to this page and subscribed to 30-40 communities that interested me. It mirrored the subreddits I followed but I also found a few new ones that interested me. Overall I feel like it's a bit easier on lemmy to find communities.

I'm curious how different instances will work over time. For example, as a gamer, I like to have one place to go to get all my news. My worry is another instance will have a much larger and better gaming community and the one I follow on lemmy.world may not be as good.

All said and done though I look forward to the new experience and hope it flourishes.

I don't have a list handy but try using the ALL view. That should include posts from all communities which other users on your server have subscribed to. You can then subscribe to communities from there.

Theres also a community called "newcommunities" where people can share new communities they make

You should be able to click "Explore Communities" and then just scroll throught he most active ones. It's much easier to quickly subscribe to a bunch on desktop, I've found.
