Some people have been asking which communities they should join first, so I posted some remote communities you can subscribe to on the sidebar on the homepage :)

Find another cool community? Leave a comment :)
There’s also this universal community search tool you can try using. If you find a community, just copy its URL and paste it in /search to subscribe to it here. This just goes to show that while there might not be many local communities here on lemmy.one yet, the beauty of the fediverse means that doesn’t matter!

Ya’ll gonna have to nerd out with me now. 😎
I’m here from reddit, and thank you for these recommendations. Time for my neuroplasticity to kick in so I can learn how all this works.
Also here from Reddit. Lemmy actually feels like how Reddit *used *to feel in its early years, i.e. fresh community with fresh ideas. Love it!
Just wanted to say, thanks for hosting this instance! I’m a reddit refuge and this Lemmy instance has been really straightforward on how to get started.

Avoid beehaw
What don’t you like about it? I find Beehaw pretty great. The only thing I could think of is that they’ve defederated some of the larger instances, but it’s understandable given their content philosophy and the current state of moderation tools on Lemmy (really terrible).
Why?
They’ve defederated over 400 instances including lemmy.world, they want centralization
Good to know, thanks.
Join us for all your sports talk over at https://fanaticus.social! We’ve got communities for all the major sports and their teams.
I also spent the past week forking the popular game day bot, redball, in order to bring game bots to lemmy! There are still a couple of kinks I’m working out but I’ve begun rolling them out to the teams’ communities, starting with the baseball communities.

And all the teams-specific communities!
Is there a community for language learners? More specifically I am interested in learning Swedish.
I think you replied to the wrong comment. My instance hosts communities for sports :)
Apparently. I am quite new to Lemmy and still learning the ropes. Probably clicked the wrong reply button :)
Time to wait for the cat ones
https://lemmy.one/c/[email protected] you mean?
We’re open for all!~
For those who missed /r/gamedeals and /r/buildapcsales while browsing lemmy
It pulls in posts from the reddit subs.
Does anyone know of any communities for pigeons or capybaras (or tbh any other weird-but-cute critters)?
Edit: adding some as I find them:
Start an ugly cute community! Lol. Refuge for all critters that are weird and not widely accepted as cute lil guys
Sadly the instance I joined doesn’t let you create new communities. Though I suppose it might make sense to shop around a bit now that all the servers are no longer melting.
I love how oddly specific this is. Not found one yet but hopefully one will pop up. I do follow a Tumblr specifically about pigeons though
wait what’s the tumblr??? 👀
Pigeon a Day There’s a surprising number of bird blogs on Tumblr!
Can somebody recommend me a community for people with cPTSD or abusive parents?
How can I create some for lemmy.one?
Skywind is officially on lemmy. They are Skyrim mod group that is doing a full conversion mod of Morrowind.
I was going down the universal search tool list, subscribing to the communities that I was interested in, and I ran into an issue trying to sub to some of the communities. Thankfully I was able to quickly find the answer - anything that is on the block list under https://lemmy.one/instances you are not able to subscribe to from this instance.
Glad to see that Lemmygrad is on the blocklist.
