Not that it is not interesting but I would like just a tad more variety on the front page.

Edit btw for those who are wondering the two communities I started are https://lemmy.world/c/newmusic and https://kbin.social/m/musicfeedback/microblog (not sure if I have the links correct for people)

Do we already have a list of subreddit replacements on lemmy, kbin etc. somewhere?

[โ€“] thesanewriter@vlemmy.net 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yes, give me a moment and I'll link it

Edit: Here it is, this is an explorer for Lemmy: https://lemmyverse.net/

No, I think it kind of goes against what we're trying to do here - if a list like that became popular, it would supercharge the growth of certain communities

There's a lot of people pushing for that because it would make the site a straight Reddit replacement, but the promise here is a lot like the original promise of Reddit - give users a single place they can go to access a bunch of small forums

If someone makes a community for that purpose or a community wants to draw in all the Reddit refugees, I have no problem with that, but I think the growth would be healthier if people find them organically rather than putting a centralized list somewhere

Sites will start to pull in a community if any of the members on that instance sub to it and there's talk of adding the ability for communities to band together in multis

This doesn't really help but I think yes. I think I saw it scrolling Lemmy a few days ago but I can't remember anything else.

I personally am using Lemmy to discover a new community
