I want to make a thread of Lemmy communities that people should know about.

Jerboah (which makes Lemmy usable for me) or my instance have real troubles finding a lot of communities on distant servers, and opening them from Firefox also doesnt work.

We dont need more tech stuff, we need to make Lemmy more useful!

If you like our communities so much, you could also create an account on slrpnk.net ๐Ÿ˜Š

But yeah, two smaller instances with not much overlap in interests by their users tend to not federate well and you need to go the extra mile to search out the communities and subscribe to them.

Thanks, exactly what I searched for.

Lemmy has a huge problem with federation of small servers it seems? At least my server has immense troubles loading anything from some servers and it seems clicking the ! Links forces the server to load them.

I think every instance should promote a random community every day to prevent this tech-only and only big community monopoly

Definitely. On !casualconversation@lemm.ee we listed a few non tech communities in the sidebar, feel free to have a look

Imagine Git for Lemmy

Usually if a community doesn't load the first time, I just refresh the page and it loads.
