A place to ask questions of Lemmygrad's best and brightest

When I browse the all section, it's overwhelmingly reddit logo and Facebook humor. I haven't really seen any niche hobby communities either. Do good communities all block lemmygrad or are they nonexistent?

I mostly only look at the piracy ones. I wish there was a better way to discover federated comms besides word of mouth, the "All" feed just got taken over by last decade's memes very quickly. Ironically it looks exactly like current reddit logo, but even reddit itself used to have a half-decent r/all in like 2014 wrt discoverability.

I saw some good piracy one's in FMHY's Lemmy instance, though they blocked us as usual to not "cause trouble," which is ironic.

I am interested in things where I don't need to take my politics unless some fervently dense liberals decide to. Some of the ones I'm interested in are Pokémon, alcohol, bonsai, video games (as art), Gojira, languages, mycology, knives, My Little Pony, and some other stuff.

the scifi community, as well as dune. Took me a while to figure out federation lol.

World News @Lemmy and the same at Lemmy.World because they were some of the worst reactionary shitholes on reddit and it's nice to try to fight the tide. Same with Ukraine @lemmy. Those people really need help with seeing reality.

I follow none. It took me months to figure out what federating was and that there are other places similar to Lemmygrad, and I figured I didn't miss anything.
