Hey all,

It’s been nearly a year since I joined this amazing community and, first The Fediverse is awesome!!! Second, it’s difficult AF to navigate.

So, in the spirit of expanding the Fediverse; what’s your favorite community??

Well obviously !achievers@lebowski.social

It’s far out, man.

!Tenforward@lemmy.world is full of fun people that are just as, if not more so, than I am into Star Trek.

But I generally view the entirety of Lemmy as a single community, since I view everything, everywhere and not just my subs or what's on my instance. I have blocked or otherwise filtered very little outside of specific users because the majority of the whole system has good vibes.

difficult AF to navigate

If you aren't aware of it, https://lemmyverse.net/communities will let you search for communities across the whole Threadiverse.

Their kbin indexing is a little wonky (isn't currently indexing kbin.social), and you need to switch to it via the hamburger menu in the upper right.

But it's the best current mechanism I'm aware of to browse through all of the communities across all instances.

Shitpost - I can't get enough memes.

There is a pyrography community - I don't practice it, but it's cool stuff and just one guy posting his passion. He took a hiatus and came back to my thunderous applause.

I also like the biology/science communities

[–] Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net 1 points 6 months ago

Yeah! That's the one!

[–] HubertManne@kbin.social 1 points 6 months ago

I was so excited when I first saw that community.

!TenForward@lemmy.world and !science_memes@mander.xyz draw my focus the most.

[–] gregorum@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

sciencememes is hilarious

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

!casualconversation@lemmy.world tops them all, unless we go by a certain post about the true scope of the place.

[–] tal@lemmy.today 5 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

It sounds like they moved to !casualconversation@lemm.ee due to the lemmy 19.3 release killing lemmy.world performance. Went to a less-loaded instance.

[–] shinigamiookamiryuu@lemm.ee 1 points 6 months ago

I thought that's the place I tagged. Darn tag system :/

!amateursatellites@lemmy.world

Unfortunately, not much is happening there. I don't even have a satellite dish (at least not yet) so I am limited to DSB, APT and LRPT.

[–] BruceTwarzen@kbin.social 2 points 6 months ago

I like the pretty much all video game communities here. They were the absolute worst on reddit, but really nice here.

[–] Bebo@literature.cafe 2 points 6 months ago

Science memes and ten forward.

[–] Asudox@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago
[–] mesamunefire@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

The retro-gaming community is pretty cool.
