Is this a joke?

No I’m just bad at finding communities

It looks like [email protected] is the biggest. Search communities for “foss”

Can I post there from sh.itjust.works?

Dunno. My account isn’t on either instance. If beehaw is federated with your instance, you would be able to post.
Show threadtrashcanAug 22, 2023
No, try [email protected]

No, Beehaw defederated your instance. The open-source community on lemmy.ml someone else already mentioned is your best bet.

Maybe not exactly what you’re looking for, but if you know of a program that already does the thing you want, you can search for a variety of alternatives on alternativeto.net. It lists paid and FOSS alternatives.
