I know [email protected] exists, but I’ve blocked lemmy.ml…

Are there any alternatives?

Edit: [email protected] exists, lol, I should have searched better.

Anyways I guess I’ll keep this post up if anyone needs in future.

Are you looking specifically for a community for communities? If not there's also Lemmy Explorer.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (1 children)

May I also plug https://fediverser.network? It is a crowdsourced database of communities, instances and subreddits to let people find the best alternatives for each subreddit.

Nice, didn't know about this one.

@Essence_of_Meh
Neither did I. It could become really useful for the whole #Fediverse.

The site above is indeed quite good

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Sadly hasn't been updated since 6 days ago. I don't know why.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, it can take a while before new communities show up. Not much can be done about it I'm afraid.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It usually updates daily though. Check the burger menu at the top right. It shows you when the data was last updated. The README of the github page also says that "publish-pages" is failing, whatever that is.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

I realize that but even those daily updates don't seem to catch everything. When I tried to bring some life to a community I was interested in it took a few weeks of activity before it showed up on the list. It's a great tool but it's not perfect.

[email protected] is another one

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 months ago

That one is great, and I will also promote [email protected] - which additionally hosts a "weekly active communities promotion thread".

[–] [email protected] 12 points 3 months ago

Was just about to recommend [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

There’s [email protected]

Also [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

You could ask for communities on [email protected]

It's a bit of a combinations of [email protected] and find a [email protected]

I know [email protected] exists, but I’ve blocked lemmy.ml…

Try.. Unblocking it?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago

I didn’t block lemmy.ml by accident

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Do you not know why people would want to block lemmy.ml?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

I do. I block communities instead of instances
