This community is intended to act an index of new and active smaller and harder to find communities. Post new communities in one of the 5 primary posts.
Anyone can post new communities, just please abide by the format in the sidebar.
You can find new daily communities with this link:
https://lemmy.world/communities?listingType=Local&sort=New&page=1
It’s not the best tool, but it allows you to see which communities have some activity and which are just dead spuds.
I’m open to suggestions on the descriptions of the 5 primary topics - I just ran with what I thought was a good descriptor of 5 different categories.
Feel free to use your own personal subscriptions of communities to add here. The idea is that this place can be a community pasteboard.
Seems to be mostly just a list of largest communities because it uses active users, posts, and comments as metrics. Top five are /technology /worldnews /no stupid questions /news /games all at lemmy.world
If it had option to filter newest community & scaled activity that would be neat. Lemmy needs some new communities, and the tools to allow them to grow - that’s what made reddit grow and improve (until enshittification smothered it).
