I honestly think we need to revive many communities related to questions, interesting topics, and overall “lets-have-a-chat-on-something” (preferably not related to what I mentioned above, or at least that touches a broader audience).
Have you subbed to the various AskLemmy/Ask[instance]/NoStupidQuestions/Out of the Loop communities across here?
To my own amusement, I found sh.itjust.works has several question communities that I tossed some posts to here & there.
Also although I haven’t sorted out what I might want to post in them, there’s these chat communities for other discussing other topics besides those you highlight getting plenty enough discussion:
I’m thinking of like “Is there a [blank]” or “Where would I find [blank]” sort of community where one might ask things like, “Is there a creator/YouTube channel/blog covering [blank]” or “Where would I find a durable [blank]?”...
I think it ultimately depends on what you are looking for, if there is a community for that then go there first. AskLemmy is good for questions you want input on. For other stuff I think places like !chatter (I’d like that place to be more active), !chat (if you’re federated there), !general are good places to put questions looking for something that doesn’t necessarily fit any existing categories.
Why? Are we not doing enough? (file.coffee)

Is there a community to ask for help finding things, other than Lemmy communities?
