I've found a few communities by searching for things directly and a few more by going to my All feed, but I'd like to discover more so I have more things to browse and more interesting places to have discussions. Curious how most folks are discovering new stuff? For all its flaws, helping me discover new stuff was something reddit was quite good at. Some sort of suggested communities based on my existing communities would be really neat.

See https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/61827 it looks like lemmy.directory might have died since this was written, and lemmyverse.net is a new option. Still lots of good info in there though.

Note this will only show you communities that someone on your instance is already subscribed to, not every community on Lemmy.

Was going to say the same, adding that I hope Lemmy gets improved in the future so you can filter out communities you don't and will never care about.

You can use https://browse.feddit.de/ to search for communities.

There's actually a community called "New Communities" that shares them all the time. I'd drop a link but I'm still confused about how exactly to link communities
