What is the best way to find other instances of interest? My first attempt at joining a second instance that I thought would be good didn't work out the way I thought it would...

@dnnsconroy @hawaii @ProfJ Baseball news/discussion is the biggest things from the bird site that I have been missing here. Hope that it makes it over...
@rossgrady @charliereece What I am probably actually doing wrong is looking for a way to make this place replace my bird site community rather than just being its own thing. But, I kind of hate losing the community I had there entirely.
@rossgrady @charliereece Hash tags seem like a good idea that I should explore more. If I can come up with some decent ones, it might point me in directions I was not finding before.
@rossgrady @charliereece I think that my biggest problem is that I used the bird app as my primary place to get baseball news and engage in nerd stats/sports conversations and I just don't think much of that community has moved over here.
I did try another instance that was focused on book reviews/discussion, since I also did a fair amount of that as well. When I got admitted I discovered that it was pretty much all in Japanese, so that didn't really work out.
@thomrstrom The biggest thing is baseball. There was an active fan and news community that I enjoyed being a part of.
Overall, I think the move from the bird site here has been a positive one, but there definitely are communities from the old place that I haven't found here and I am not sure if there is a way to replace them.
@autumn Is the best way to pick an instance just based on something like genre interest?
Is #Bookwrym a viable alternative to Goodreads? Is there a decent "For Dummies" explanation out there?
