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!

And that’s it. Whew. Obviously I might have missed some, but these are the most interesting communities for me.
Interested in finding more communities? Check out [email protected] to see people showing off their new communities.
Edit: Removed spaces from links, added xbox to games section
Edit 2: android community moved to [email protected], updated link
Sadly the r/dota2 community doesnt seem to have migrated that much. Which is a shame because everyone from pro players to valve use it as an official means to communicate.
From the way the mods of that subreddit behaved, it was pretty clear that they didn’t care at all about the protests. They made a poll and ignored the like 60% that wanted the protest to continue.
[email protected] is missing
There is one in Spanish https://eslemmy.es/
Anything for e-bikes or e-bike building?
Let me know if you find something!
PS5 community is dead any alternatives??
Can anyone help me how to subscribe to these communities? Thank you
If you’re logged in on the website, those links should “just work” and the subscribe button is in the sidebar. Mobile website also works really well although you have to expand the sidebar to see the button.
If you’re using one of the many different mobile apps you’ll have to let us know which one because they all seem to work completely differently at the moment!
Edit: Just realised you’re on Kbin and it looks like Kbin is stripping the link formatting out of the post for some weird reason, that’s why you can’t click them 🤦♀️
Come check out [email protected] for all of your awe-inspiring space photos.
btw the spaces in the links provided by OP effectively break the links if you’re not based on the community’s home server. Would be really great to get this updated.
Nice!
My addition to this would be [email protected], for a good list of apps you can try out. Note that while it says apps, this also covers browser extensions and PC web apps.
…also note I have never linked before, so I have no idea how that is going to turn out.
thx for the list
Nah – overrun with tankies.
Only good commie…
You forgot
!japanese_metal :)Fixing the links for us lemmy users

I still don’t understand how to subscribe to groups that aren’t on my instance. I sometimes was able to get it to work on my PC but it’s impossible on mobile. This platform needs a lot of work.
So I’m on Kbin.social right now. Let’s say I wanna view our gaming community. like how Reddit has:
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.
