Just making sure I'm in the right place. I cannot see any developed communities here so I've started wondering, what's the real place everyone from Reddit has moved to? I've heard something about Discuit, but never tried it.

As an aside; i really like

!trendingcommunities@feddit.nl

It's a great and easy way to get an overview of new communities or communities with some new activity. I check interesting communities and if i like them, i subscribe. There is also a community where you can ask for a certain community. I asked once and someone replied and pointed me to an interesting community:

!requests@lemmit.online

Yeah trendingcommunities is great! Was very proud of !knitting@lemmy.world for getting in there last week lol.

That second link though is the bot spam instance where you can request a subreddit for it to just mindlessly repost. Most people already have it blocked. There are probably places to request real communities too but I don't know them off the top of my head!

Haha, yep, joined the knitting one, even though i'm on a hiatus. Still nice to see people show off their work.

I had no idea about that instance; i joined once, asked for a community and someone immediately shared one, so i thought it was very helpful. Thanks for letting me know!
