The Voyager app has a built in "migrate subreddits" button. It's not great but it works.
I primarily use lemmyverse.net with related terms till I find something. Otherwise I might create it myself till I can hand it off to someone.
Here's the guide from !communityPromo@lemmy.ca:
A great way to find lesser known communities is to look at the /communities page on an instance. For example: https://lemmy.ca/communities

r/linux4noobs -> !linuxquestions@lemmy.zip or any of the Linux communities seem to be responsive to questions. I think in these early stages the more niche communities need to exist within the larger communities. If the niche community gets too disruptive to the large community it can break out into its own community.
