What is your favourite Lemmy community, which is not on lemmy.ml?

I’ve already started seeing a lot of redundant communities being made here that have already existed on other Lemmy instances, and lemmy.ml is at risk of centralization and overload, so now is a great time to raise awareness of other instances.

For science topics, mander.xyz has a lot of good ones set up, and !solarpunk on slrpnk.net has been great!

edit: for new users - you can type ! to begin autofilling a community, even for ones on other instances, like I did for the solarpunk community above. It may take a few seconds for the autofill results to show up if you have a slow connection like me.

DudePluto,

Tip: If you're thinking about making a community, google it first, like this:

Let's say I want to make a community for dogs. I'll google "c/dogs lemmy" and some variations just to be sure.

This has been working for me. If it doesn't come up, it probably doesn't exist

cavemeat,

I quite like !privacyguides It migrated from reddit, and the mods run their own instance rather than just making a community on lemmy.ml

I quite like that Beecaw doesn't federate the Tankies.

I don't really need a genocide denying group ofauthoritarians in my face first thing in the morning.

You're going to need a lot more of those to live up to the great Reactionary Counter-Revolutionaries so widely admired by tankies.

teruma,

What are the tankies?

DudePluto,

GenZedong and other communities shilling on lemmygrad. Some of these accounts post multiple pro-china, pro-russia, anti-usa articles per hour. I'm all for open discussion, but accounts like that are just propaganda pumpers

To be clear, not everyone and everything on lemmygrad is a tankie shill. We need places that are safe for discussion of political ideologies. But I mention lemmygrad because that's where the tankies seem to be flocking

beached,

How does one follow a community from another instance. for instance, beehaw’s gaming community I would like to follow, but when i am there, it makes be create a separate account.

Barbarian,

Go to Communities at the top, change the filter from “Local” to “All” and search for “Gaming”.

If you’re the first one who wants to register to a community from this server (not the case here) it’s slightly more complex.

In addition to what @Barbarian mentioned about changing the filter and searching, you can link it from your own instance like so:

https://lemmy.ml/c/gaming@beehaw.org

You can also grab the URL to any community or post on another instance, return to your own instance, and paste the URL into the search bar. If you're the first person to ever search for that server it might not find anything at first, but it'll fetch the data and probably work in a couple minutes.

beto,

I launched lemmy.studio today, with the intent of hosting some music communities (music production, genres, different media, DAWs, etc.).

I'm on feddit.de, which is a German server whith a friendly community. There's also feddit.it and feddit.dk for Italian or danish people. Would be cool if we see more European feddits, that work together and help each other out.

And for my favorite communities that aren't on lemmy.ml

!gaming on beehaw.org and !ich_iel (which is the German version of me_irl) on feddit.de

I started !gamedev for those interested :)

@NoxiousPluK@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

!gamedev now with proper link :) Tried linking it on mobile using the new Mlem iOS app and managed to crash it. :D

alex,

Do you federate with Beehaw? I have a 404 every time I look for a blahaj.zone community from Beehaw :(

thegiddystitcher,
@thegiddystitcher@beehaw.org avatar

I'm on Beehaw and managed to join this one ok. I think there's a delay when the first person tries to search for an instance, before it actually shows up in results. Not ideal but maybe try it again now?

lntl,

I had fun scrolling through the posts on lemmygrad.ml/c/moretankie196

The first rule of moretankie196 is you do not talk about the first rule.

The second rule of moretankie196 is you DO NOT talk about the second rule.

GenericPerson,

Communism and Tankies are cringe.

ScarletCoconut,

Tankies, when you don’t like the owning class exploiting workers, so you make the state exploit workers ☹️

Gotta plug my instance :)

PopHeads and fans of pop music rejoice, I have an entire instance just for you. Come and post all of your pop music theories, favorite tracks, costumes, memes, snarky comments, and all other related things. Hell, create a new community if you like!

Will be creating more as interest demands, or create one of your own, we know there’s already a few fans of Camila Cabello there and I know I love CRJ :)

Oh, and to ease the stress, my registration is currently open for any lurkers

Is there a guide for how to register on multiple Lemmy instances? I am registered here, but noticed that I can’t subscribe to communities on other instances? I assume I need to register there as well, but how do I get my subscriptions on both instances to funnel into the same place?

Thanks! Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this

scrubbles,
@scrubbles@poptalk.scrubbles.tech avatar

Nope you can subscribe to other lemmy instances. You just need to know their link. For example, if you want to follow my Taylor Swift community and become a full blown swiftie like me, you can do this: (Make sure All, All, and All are selected when searching)

Sounds fun! Looks fun! However I am having trouble subscribing. Nothing is found when I search. Now, I know you aren’t tech support but pointing me in the right direction and telling what I am doing wrong herr would be amazing. https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/cf4a038b-a46f-4004-8fb5-c1c9ca975b94.jpeg

Interesting. You can also try https://poptalk.scrubbles.tech/c/popheads. On the website I know there’s a bug where it doesn’t show a loading spinner either, so it may take a few seconds after clicking search for it to show up even though it looks like it’s not doing anything.

Lemmy.ml is also inundated with new members right now, they’re actually 404ing for me right now, so they may be having issues connecting.
