What are some great communities to follow that are not on lemmy.ml or beehaw
The way Lemmy works right now is you search a community in your instance for it to then get shown, so you need to first discover that community from elsewhere.
With that in mind, what are some growing communities that you discovered that could get some more love?
I just started https://sh.itjust.works/c/vtubers. I'm part of a small community of VTubers, and hoping to meet more people and make friends through Lemmy as well.
Something I haven't been able to wrap my head around, do I need a username on each instance for federated instances? If not, how does one participate in communities in other instances? I'm with lemmy.ml, but if I want to interact with a post on beehaw, how do I do that?
There are a lot of communities to discover on kbin.social's magazines , I have also made my own community for Buddhism, although I'm not sure how many people here are really interested in that.
Just chipping in to promote my own lemmy instance: I created !baseball@fanaticus.social and communities for the other 30 MLB teams to replace the subreddits we left behind.
I haven't found a good pro wrestling community, so I figured I'd try and start something. No idea what I'm doing but we'll get there. Link for anyone interested: https://midwest.social/c/wrestling
we're just getting started so you've either been waiting your whole life for this instance, or you're glad it's on someone else's rack.
PopHeads is for, well pop music-heads. and i've no clue how to link it so it works for everyone. that's a regular web link, apparently !popheads@poptalk.scrubbles.tech will work better for some.
the instance also just tipped up a meme community and plans to build out artist communities as well. the first is for taylor swift, so yeah, our mod buttons say 'hater' on them.
I'm going to shamelessly plug my community I started lemmy.ml/c/indiecountry it's a space to show off some of your favorite country music and maybe convince people not all country music is what you hear on the radio. So far it's just me but everyone is invited
