Automod bugged out and banned me forever from reddit, i want to explore more Lemmy now but am not sure if Im missing anything good im not directly looking for--i am also kinda autistic and oblivious so if there are instances with a bad history or full of chuds or something a heads up would be swell

No worries :)

  • Not sure we have a Hobbydrama, but it's also not my interest, so I could have blocked it.
  • Cursedcrochet looks fun. We have an active knitting community, but probably not enough activity/users for a specific "cursedcrochet" community at this point. Also have a semi-active leatherwork community, if that's of interest.
  • Wunkus seems great. I think the closest match we may have would be Scrungy Cats, but there could be communities I don't know about.
  • Also, in a different comment someone mentioned the solarpunk communities (basically anything on the slrpnk.net instance), I'm a big fan of those, and think they're worth checking out.

The threadiverse (roughly the reddit-like part of the fediverse) is pretty small (~43k MAU), so if something doesn't exist and you want it to, your probably going to have to start and build it yourself.

I was kind of off-put by that initially, but I kind of like it now. It's kind of like building your own little space and people can come check it out and see what you've been building and contribute if they feel like it. I created fedilytics (Fediverse-Analytics) a couple months ago because I was curious how the fediverse was doing. It's not particularly active with other people (got first non-me post yesterday!), but I mostly built it for myself and enjoy anytime someone stops in to talk in the comments.

If you do decide to make a community in the future, I'd suggest making the post in the community and then cross-posting it, to a larger relevant community, to increase traffic to your post (as many people just stick to their subscribed feed).

Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.


6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world


7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.


Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.
