As Lemmy starts maturing, there starts being so many communities out there that it’s pretty hard to keep track. I’ve been browsing for about a month now, here’s a list of popular communities I’ve subscribed to that others would find interesting!

Not many of these were noticeable while browsing communities so you may have missed some of these. I’ve roughly ranked these based on which I’d spend the most time on in each category.

Also note that I would add Kbin communities as well, but federation between Lemmy and Kbin is still not working well, so right now this post is for Lemmy communities only!

General Discussion

Humor & Memes

Technology

Pictures & Videos

Movies & TV

Video Games

And that’s it. Whew. Obviously I might have missed some, but these are the most interesting communities for me.

Edit: Removed spaces from links, added xbox to games section

Edit 2: android community moved to [email protected], updated link

    i had to unsubscribe from !technews @radiation.party because it is borderline spam.

    i am not talking about quality of the posts, lot of these links are quite interesting, but there is so many of them that it just took over my feed and i want to see something else occasionally :D

    there should be a feature to subscribe to community but exclude it from feed, or somehow limit it to max x posts per y time or something…

      The bot definitely posts a ton of links per hour. I don’t have it subscribed but I do check in every now and then.

        Yeah I developed it to average new posts over each 5m interval so there isn’t a huge dump of posts every 5 minutes- but it’s still a lot of topics compared to Lemmys typical activity.

        Lots of non-tech crap gets mixed in, thinking about adding some filtering etc.
