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