I have some experience with games like Baldurs Gate or Divinity, but now i want to get into Tabletop DnD, but i have no clue where to start. I tried to get the starter pack from Wizards, but the newsletter sign up seems to be broken. Where can i find groups? Tips for character creation? Thanks you

Tagging a long with this message and maybe it will help OP, but is there a central "home" for DnD in the Fediverse?

This community is a good one, there is also an instance: ttrpg.network as well as pathfinder.social

https://ttrpg.network/ is the fediverse home for DnD and any other tabletop roleplaying game. It's based on Lemmy.

There's also https://pathfinder.social/ for specifically Pathfinder (which is related to DnD but is technically a different system based on an older version of DnD).

I found !ttrpg.network (not sure how to link from kbin, but that's what i search for) and it seems to have a lot of good, active communities. Other than that, I haven't found anything more populated.

@EmpeRohr Off the Fediverse, dndbeyond.com and 5esrd.com are actually more than sufficient to get someone started. I do recommend trying to get either the starter or essential's kit because you'll also get the digital version on dndbeyond.
