Fast growing Lemmy Communities? - lemm.ee

Hi. Is there a tool to see fastest growing Lemmy communities? It’s easy to see the big communities, but it would be helpful to see fast growing communities to join in with community building for things you may have an interest in. is there anything that currently does this?

There is a bot on feddit.nl that lists the daily growth of communities across instances:

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
It’d be awesome if those fixed link was clickable. Not sure if it’s just an issue in Memmy.

It works just like that , very smoothly, on the Voyager app

it’s clickable on web at least
Memmy seems to be one of the only apps struggling with that format. For browser and most apps, the exclamation point format is the best way to link.

On the web, /c/[email protected] is also clickable.

Even if someone from Kbin links to a magazine (their term for a community) it will link it, too. /m/[email protected]

It’s clickable on Jerboa app too
It should get fixed in Memmy soon. Even on desktop browser they only starting with v0.18.0 of the web client.
Woah, thank you. This is super useful!

Not sure if a percentage growth of subscribers is the right metric - a growth from 1 to 3 subscribersloiks much bigger when expressed in %...

I visited one of the communities listed, and it literally only had 3 posts - a welcome one and two pinned ones. All by the same author. That's not exactly what I'd call a fast growig or trending community...

This is probably the best answer I will get. Thanks for that :)
I agree that would be nice to have. There’s “Trending communities” on the main page, but I realized they coded that section to be “today’s activity level vs. the average level”, which means brand new communities with only one post and no comments were being shown as “trending” since today’s activity is infinitely more than the average, which was zero before today.
But that’s good right? It means new communities get a bit of shine
Maybe Lemmy Explorer will help? You can look at instances stats as well as communities. You can also change to Kbin and magazines using the top right menus.
Lemmy Explorer

Instance and Community Explorer for Lemmy

If we had an option to hide image/text/link based posts from our browse selection, especially ‘all’, then I think we would be able to find them by accident much more easily.

search-lemmy.com just added a Find Community feature that works well. Not precisely what you’ve asked but it does match results to a keyword so you can correlate matches with “growing” perhaps.
