This may be a stupid question, but how do you decide in what community to ask questions? (quokk.au)

I want to try asking more questions online since it has become so difficult to find things with search engines.

But I don't really know where to post my questions?
How do you decide what community to post to?

For example:
I have a question about meditation.
This looks pretty straightforward, I search for 'meditation' under all communities.
I find 2 communities called Meditation. (I can find more if I search on another lemmy instance, but they don't seem to show up on my current instance)
Both of them look rather inactive.

Do I just post to both of them? Is it possible to post to multiple communities simultaneously?
Should I look for other communities, what to search for?

well first off this would be perfect for no stupid questions. especially since some accounts have taken it as a troll challenge. I say post to both and maybe a more active general community as well. Sometimes cross posting helps people learn that communities exist.
