GuadinThe search for communities is a bit of a pain, but !newcommunities has new communities (so not a lot of content yet) and https://browse.feddit.de/ has also a nice overview. You can also scroll through all the new posts and look for communities you like.
There are also communities on kbin.
Usually when you follow a couple of communities, you stumble upon others.
New Communities - LemmyWorld
A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion. # Rules The rules may be more established as time goes on, but it’s important to have a foundation to work on. 1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world’s rules, which can be found here [https://mastodon.world/about]. 2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion. 3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible. # Formatting Please include this following format in your post: [link text](/c/[email protected]) This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won’t You should also include either: [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] or instance.com/c/community [http://instance.com/c/community] # FAQ: Q: Why do I get a 404? A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync. Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that? A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Thank you!
Cevilia (they/she/…)Welcome! I second lemmyverse.net/communities/ - it’s a great way to find migrating communities and also new ones that have sprung up organically!
Also, for future reference, please put the question in the title of your post (rule 1). This helps people know if they’re gonna be able to help you before they even click to read more. :)
ThekingoflordaHey, welcome to lemmy. Could you please edit the title to include the question (see rule 1)? If you have any questions, lemmy know (:
OK I’ll do that, sorry for breaking the rules!
fiofiofioI collected some resources that can help in this post, like the aforementioned lemmyverse.net. Another useful trick I’ve found is going to instances dedicated to specific interests (like programming.dev) and browsing their communities list.
The first couple links in my post are kbin specific but the rest should be useful to everybody!
