I assume [email protected] is for just that, and promoting new instances is unacceptable there. Where is an appropriate place to advertise a new instance?

Asking for one that is not my own. Decentralization is cool and I literally just found out about the existence of https://fanaticus.social/, a sports instance, from checking the [email protected] sidebar. I'd like to help this sports instance get attention and bolster its existing communities. I don't know where to go besides finding big preexisting sports communities and mentioning its existence there.

Yesterday I posted about rss.ponder.cat, with communities automatically fed from a selection of RSS feeds. Today I made [email protected], with:

• A sticky-post roadmap of the RSS feeds that are already available
• A place for people to request communities to be added
• A place for me to post announcements about new communities

I don't plan to spam [email protected] with every new RSS feed, but I figured I would let people know the location of the community that will get announcements about new RSS feed communities, in case they want to subscribe to it.

Cheers!

We all know that content discoverability can be challenging on Lemmy.

[email protected] is a space dedicated about new and active communities.

We started a weekly thread yesterday about active communities (the requirement is to have at least one post in the last week), feel free to have a look at it and see if there are communities that might interest you!

This community has also been highlighted on Lemmy.world to increase its visibility

Hello,

As everybody knows, content discovery on Lemmy can sometimes be a bit tricky.

To help smaller communities to get more activity, I launch this thread for people to promote the communities they are active one.

One important criteria: please only promote communities that have been at least one post in the last 7 days. And if there is none, feel free to post there and then promote it here!

This could be a weekly thread, but let's see how it goes

Finally, [email protected] and [email protected] are communities that you can subscribe to to see updates about communities

Perhaps after some amount of time having announced themselves over in [email protected] and [email protected], or...I don't know if there are communities for instances (the fediverse communities, presumably?), but likewise for them?

The combination of a promotional space and discussion for helping grow communities/instances could help ensure there's always some activity keeping this community visible to those seeking help.

The Plan

As an introductory subproject, I will be reaching out directly to Lemmy moderators and asking for their experiences establishing and growing their communities. Once compiled, a summary of the experiences will be written up in a living document for current best practices. To do this, I will be contacting moderators in sets of roughly 5-10 at a time. This will allow for constructive iteration in a way that posting on the “new community” subs (as is more or less standard practice) simply would not.

What then?

Once there are enough resources to be useful I'll make announcement posts in relevant communities as well as reach out to the mods of communities like [email protected] about being linked in the sidebar.

And long term?

We'll organize a series of activity drives intended to build bonds and strengthen the institutional knowledge of the fediverse. These initiatives may include:

• Wiki Building
• Outreach Drives
• Community Consolidation and Organization
• Cross-Community Collaboration
• Housecleaning

👽 Coming from Reddit?

Hola a todos, Hago esta pregunta porque me intriga. Si nos fijamos en otros países e idiomas europeos, parece que les va bien: https://feddit.it/, https://jlai.lu/, https://feddit.nl/, https://feddit.de/, etc.

Aquí, casi nadie. ¿Tenéis alguna idea de por qué? Ya he intentado hablar de la comunidad en [email protected] et [email protected] pero por lo visto no es suficiente.

We're getting quite a few new users, so I thought it might be a great time to write some quick-start guide. This post will stay pinned for a week or so, afterwards it will be linked from the sidebar.

Right now you're on Lemmy, a federated platform for discussion and link aggregation.

What's the federation thing you're reading about everywhere?

That's a fancy name for a protocol that makes it possible for all Lemmy servers to interact with each other - that means you can read content from other servers here on lemmings.world.

Does that mean that I can log in to any server with my account?

Nope, your account is tied to the server you created it on. But that doesn't restrict you from commenting on posts on different servers, creating posts in communities on different servers, or subscribing to communities on different servers. In fact, that's the whole point of federated platforms!

Note that each server first needs to know that a community exists before it can fetch its posts. That happens when someone from the server subscribes to the community for the first time. If no one subscribed to a particular community, you won't see it in the "All" feed. But hey, you can always be the pioneer and be the first to subscribe.

How do I find communities?

You can always use the search at the top. You can also use the various communities for sharing communities:

• [email protected] - general community for asking where to find a community
• [email protected] - a community where mods post about a new community they have created

And you can use https://lemmyverse.net/communities - a brilliant service which indexes all known Lemmy communities regardless of what server they're on.

Tip: Set your home instance (lemmings.world if you've registered here) on Lemmyverse.net using the home button in the top right corner - all community links will point correctly to your instance.

How do I link to other communities on Lemmy?

You may have noticed already, but the format is !community_name@lemmy_server.tld. For example [email protected]. This is similar to using r/subreddit_name on Reddit. In the same way, you can mention users like this: @[email protected]. Note that this will also notify the user that they have been mentioned.

Some frontends don't render the user link correctly, sadly that's the case for the official one. In that case you have to use a little bit of markdown to help: [@[email protected]](/u/[email protected]) which will be rendered like this: @[email protected]. Note that if you only want to tag someone, just writing @[email protected] is enough, the markdown thing is only if you want to make sure the user link is clickable for all users.

Frontends? What's that?

Aside from the official Lemmy frontend at https://lemmings.world there are also alternative frontends written by different people. All those frontends display the same data, they just have different ways to go about it. A sad fact remains that all of them look better than the official one, so I advise you to use a different frontend.

On Lemmings.world you can find these frontends:

• https://a.lemmings.world - a frontend called Alexandrite and my personal favorite
• https://p.lemmings.world - a frontend called Photon, another great and popular option
• https://old.lemmings.world - a frontend inspired by old Reddit

Mobile apps

There are many, many apps for your phone, whether you have an Android or an iPhone. There's even a separate community for them: [email protected]. My personal favorite is Eternity ([email protected]) for Android.

NSFW

If you're here for that juicy NSFW, there are two Lemmy servers for that (lemmynsfw.com, pornlemmy.com) and pretty much all porn communities are there. Due to the federated nature, you can of course subscribe to their communities from lemmings.world. If, on the other hand, you don't want to see any NSFW, in your account settings you can check that you don't want to see any NSFW. If you see any untagged NSFW, please report it.

Bots

When you're at the settings page, you may notice two bot related settings: Bot Account and Show Bot Accounts. The first one marks your own account as a bot and the other can be used to disable seeing all bot posts and comments on Lemmy. It's completely up to you, but there are many useful ones. I run three such bots:

• @[email protected] - just mention the bot in a comment and it will reply to it.
• @[email protected] - automatically creates TL;DR for linked articles from supported sites
• @[email protected] - many people use URLs (like https://lemmings.world/c/wwdits) instead of the community name to link them, which doesn't work for people on different instances - if someone from a different instance clicks the link, they won't be logged in to their account and can't comment. This bot replies with the corrected link

While you can disable all bots in the settings, in my opinion it's better to block them individually - you might for example dislike ChatGPT but find automatic TL;DRs useful, so you can simply just block the ChatGPT bot.

Glossary

Defederation

You'll most likely hear this term sooner or later. It means that one instance's admin(s) decide that they don't want to see the content of another instance. The reason might be arbitrary, but on well-meaning instances (like this one) it's usually because of some serious reasons: hate speech, child sexual abuse material (CSAM), spamming other instances and so on. You can check the code of conduct this instance uses to defederate with other instances. We use Fediseer to manage our blocklist, you may view the reason for each defederation there.

If you don't see some of the instancse we've defederated from on Fediseer, that's because one of the other instances we trust has marked it as containing CSAM or loli content

Fediverse

You might hear this term around. Lemmy isn't the only platform that uses the federated protocol (called ActivityPub) for federation with others. There are for example Mastodon (similar to Twitter), Kbin (has sections similar to both Twitter and Reddit), but also Bookwyrm (Goodreads alternative) and so on. These all services are collectively called Fediverse. Some of them can interact with each other (like Lemmy and Kbin), some of them can interact only a little (like Mastodon with Lemmy, but not Lemmy with Mastodon) and some of them not at alll (like Lemmy and Bookwyrm). Over time the integration with other Fediverse services will get better and better.

You might also sometimes see the term Threadiverse for services like Kbin, Lemmy and others similar to Reddit.

That's all I can think of for now, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

🙌 Communities for discovering new communities

🌐 Instances to look through

👽 Coming from Reddit?

Asking this to the general audience because that's a comment I've seen quite a lot recently.

So, let's start with a list of communities that could be interesting to a wide audience, sorted by monthly active users (MAU), the most active being on top.

• [email protected] (1.6k MAU)
• [email protected] (521 MAU)
• [email protected] (453 MAU)
• [email protected] (140 MAU)
• [email protected] (133 MAU)
• [email protected] (130 MAU)
• [email protected] (69 MAU)
• [email protected] (56 MAU)
• [email protected] (31 MAU)
• [email protected] (24 MAU)
• [email protected] (12 MAU)
• [email protected] (9 MAU)

Those numbers may seem low, but remember that those are active users, who at least commented or posted in the last month. So even if you are afraid to be shouting to the abyss, there will be other people next to you to keep the ball rolling.

Also, please note that those communities are suffering from the current tedious discoverability of new content on Lemmy. I'm hoping to make them more popular with this post, as I'm sure those are topics that can interest a lot of people.

Another thing to keep in mind is that Lemmy cannot replace 18 years of content creation overnight. It will take time for those communities to grow to the same level of content and activity than there counterpart, but with a bit of time, we'll get there.

In addition, there are a few places to look out for new communities.

The first place to look for is https://lemmyverse.net, but Lemmy.world communities are currently excluded for some reason (https://github.com/tgxn/lemmy-explorer/issues/139).

A second place is this community: [email protected]. People tend to promote their communities there, you can also ask for a community you are looking for.

Finally, [email protected] provides a daily report of communities becoming popular.

It was lagging the instance quite a bit, and really isn't necessary given the amount of active users we have now and the communities already federated in.

If you want to see new communities that might not be federated yet though, per usual feel free go to https://lemmyverse.net or [email protected]

57k active users on Lemmy, Casual Conversation seems a pretty common topic, and still there aren't that many people around here.

I posted on [email protected] , we are probably the most populous community with this name.

Maybe it's because LemmyWorld communities do not appear on Lemmyverse.net any more?

What do you think could be the issue?

The answer to this would be good to include in the sidebar so people would have a better idea what’s ok to post.

Epic music is its own genre, but it can also be used to describe music more broadly - music from other genres that evokes a feeling of awe or other strong emotion.

The, uh, other place’s epic music community describes it this way:

“Music that speaks to the soul either lyrically, melodically, instrumentally, aurally, rhythmically, vocally, technologically, emotionally, temporally, or in some other profound way.” (a broad definition that would encompass multiple genres)

What kind of music would you like this community to focus on?

EDIT:

I just came across ascallion's post on [email protected] from 2 months ago where they described it as Cinematic music that speaks to the soul.

That description answers my question.

You may intuitively believe that large instances are the best place to start a new community, since that's where most people are.

The good news is it's viable to start a community on any instance, provided you take some steps to ensure that content propagates to the large ones too.

How Lemmy content federation works

A Lemmy instance will automatically receive federated content from any community on the Fediverse, as long as at least one its users has subscribed to that community. This content is visible when you click on "All" on the main menu:

For example, the content I post to [email protected] automatically propagates to the likes of lemmy.world and lemm.ee since both of those instances have at least one user that has subscribed to it.

Making your community visible

To ensure that your content propagates to the large instances, you need to have at least one subscriber from those instances. There are several ways you can go about this.

The quickest is to create a user on each instance you want to reach and subscribe to your community from there. This is easier than it sounds and gives you the added benefit of having your identity preserved there too.

If that feels like too much hassle, I am happy to help you out by subscribing to your community from a few of the largest instances. Send me a message with the details.

Another option is to try posting in communities that are dedicated to discovering new communities:

• [email protected]
• [email protected]

Choosing the right instance to host your community

What's most important is choosing a reliable instance that you resonate with. How many users the instance already has is not that relevant and can be a poor indicator of reliability (see the disappearance of vlemmy.net).

Pick an instance that is open about how it operates and what its principles are. The more you know, the better informed your decision.

Why bother with all this when I can just create my community on lemmy.world?

There are many benefits to venturing out into the Fediverse:

• You can pick an instance that more closely matches your style and beliefs.
• A community with 100 members is a drop in the ocean on a large instance, but will likely be an important pillar for a small one.
• The admins of a smaller instance are usually more accessible and care a bit more about what happens to your community.
• Well run smaller instances are usually more reliable and perform better than large ones.
• The name you want for your community is likely to be available on a smaller instance.
• Smaller instances are not usually interesting targets for attacks or trolls.
• Your content will get similar exposure thanks to federation.

I hope you found this post helpful, feel free to ask any questions you may still have.

As Lemmy starts maturing, there starts being so many communities out there that it's pretty hard to keep track. I've been browsing for about a month now, here's a list of popular communities I've subscribed to that others would find interesting!

Not many of these were noticeable while browsing communities so you may have missed some of these. I've roughly ranked these based on which I'd spend the most time on in each category.

Also note that I would add Kbin communities as well, but federation between Lemmy and Kbin is still not working well, so right now this post is for Lemmy communities only!

Fediverse New User Orientation

Welcome to the Fediverse New User Orientation! If you're just starting out on Fediverse or planning to join in from Reddit, here's a rundown of what you need to know and how to navigate this new space.

What is Fediverse?

The Fediverse is a network made up of diverse platforms, such as Lemmy, Mastodon, PeerTube, and several others, that use a common protocol known as ActivityPub. This allows for seamless interaction between users across these platforms. With Fediverse, you have the freedom to join any instance (server) that caters to your interests, and you can interact with users from other instances as well.

Lemmy

The Reddit-like federated forum app that runs on ActivityPub within the Fediverse

Lemmy is one of the platforms within the Fediverse. It shares quite a bit similarity with Reddit, hence it has been referred to as the "Reddit of the Fediverse." It provides users with the opportunity to create communities (like subreddits). The federated forum app runs on ActivityPub, meaning you can follow, comment, and share posts from different Lemmy servers.

Então você se inscreveu em uma das muitas instâncias do Lemmy e agora deseja começar a ingressar nas comunidades nas quais está interessado.

Existem algumas maneiras de fazer isso...

Usando a página Comunidades:

O mais óbvio... link Comunidades no topo da página.
Quando estiver na página Comunidades, você verá 3 guias:

• Inscrito - óbvio o suficiente
• Local - comunidades feitas na sua instância
• Todas - um pouco enganador porque na verdade não são todas as comunidades, mas sim todas as comunidades que foram buscadas por sua instância até agora.

Navegando na primeira página:

Mais especificamente, navegando na página inicial com o filtro definido como Todos (Inscrito | Local | Todos)
Se você estiver em uma instância bastante popular, provavelmente encontrará postagens de todos os tipos de novas comunidades à medida que outras pessoas de sua instância as buscarem.

Usando os navegadores da comunidade:

Esses sites indexam comunidades em todas as instâncias e você pode usá-los para pesquisar comunidades remotas.

• browse.feddit.de
• lemmyverse.net
• browse.toast.ooo

Para se inscrever ou até mesmo ver comunidades remotas (comunidades hospedadas em outras instâncias), elas devem ser buscadas por sua instância.

Como buscá-los:

• Copie o link para a comunidade que deseja buscar.
• Acesse a página Comunidades em sua instância e defina o filtro como Todos.
• Cole o link no campo de pesquisa e clique no botão Pesquisar.
• Quando o texto dizendo "Sem resultados" sob o botão Pesquisar desaparecer, isso significa que a comunidade foi buscada com sucesso por sua instância (pode demorar um pouco mais para buscá-la, especialmente se a instância estiver sobrecarregada).
• É isso! Agora você pode excluir o URL do campo de pesquisa e localizar a comunidade pelo nome.
