I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already.
Despite that, some of my hobby ones still aren’t here. NFL exists, but it’s the same as nothing so far. Soccer I couldn’t find at first, maybe today it already does? Also, no sign of fantasy football.
I also followed a bunch of History subs, but looks like most people in Lemmy only care about science and technology.
Tell us, what is missing for you?
Idk which ones you’ve tried but I know there’s [email protected]
As far as the “no single refuge” thing, I think that just comes with time as people decide “imma post in this one”. Just pick one and go for it tbh.
yeah that one has one subscriber!
If you search from your own instance, I think it only shows the subscribers from your own instance. So browsing from lemmy.ml there might be one subscriber but on lemmy.world there would be 77.
Wow. Ok. That’s good to know thanks.
Actually I just noticed that when you search for say, “selfhosted” you’ll only be shown results that people have already accessed from the instance you’re on. So when you search for a community, if none are shown that doesn’t mean none exist, just that no one on your instance have accessed them yet ?
Yeah that’s correct! I use https://browse.feddit.de/ to search which seems to work across all instances.
Ah see on mine it shows as having 77, so clearly those numbers are not to be trusted.
