What are some great communities to follow that are not on lemmy.ml or beehaw (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

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?

Can I follow these from kbin?

[–] tojikomori@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

You can! To subscribe to something on another instance just go to the general search and type <community name>@<hostname>

For example here's a search for ffxiv@possumpat.io

I think so - if you search for those links on your kbin instance, I believe they should show up as magazines and you can subscribe to them the same way.
