List of popular communities you should visit! (lemmy.world)

As Lemmy starts maturing, there starts being so many communities out there that it's pretty hard to keep track. I've been browsing for about a month now, here's a list of popular communities I've subscribed to that others would find interesting!

Not many of these were noticeable while browsing communities so you may have missed some of these. I've roughly ranked these based on which I'd spend the most time on in each category.

Also note that I would add Kbin communities as well, but federation between Lemmy and Kbin is still not working well, so right now this post is for Lemmy communities only!

So I'm on Kbin.social right now. Let's say I wanna view our gaming community. like how Reddit has:

Reddit.com/r/Subredditname

I would go to:

kbin.social/m/magazinename

You on lemmy.world would go to:

lemmy.world/c/communityname

Super simple so far I hope lol. Same url format, just a C instead of an R on lemmy, and M instead of an R on kbin.

Let's say I on kbin wanna see your gaming community. If I did kbin.social/m/gaming, I would get mine. The url though can act like how an email address does, by adding a domain to the end of it. So if I did kbin.social/m/[email protected], I'll see your gaming community. Same if you do lemmy.world/c/gaming you see yours, but lemmy.world/c/[email protected] you should see ours.

If I got those URL's right that is lol

Both kbin and lemmy instances do also have other ways to get to other instances to sub, but the instructions I provided are based just on the url so it should work for anyone while ya get used to the UI and new platform and whatnot.
