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!

Interested in finding more communities? Check out !newcommunities@lemmy.world to see people showing off their new communities.
Edit: Removed spaces from links, added xbox to games section
Edit 2: android community moved to android@lemdro.id, updated link
Anything for e-bikes or e-bike building?
Have you successfully subscribed to any lemmy.ml communities or moviesandtv@lemmy.film? Mine still show as pending after a couple of weeks
Pending is the same as subscribed, at least functionally. You’ll still get the posts in your subscribed feed. I think it’s just a visual thing.
I’m getting the same. It’s all pending.
I don’t know how to save so I’m going to comment a dot here like the old days
“.”
.
Should add the Xbox community to the gaming section.
Done and done
Saving for later. Thanks!
!Ich_iel@feddit.de is missing
Quick plug for !earthporn@lemmy.ml
Pretty established at this point and getting more posts every day.
My browser thinks that’s a user link. Is the formatting for a community link different?
Thanks, still getting the hang of this. I think indexed it?

The ! is shorthand for linking to other communities, it provides an autocomplete link for referencing communities.
The links work on the website and Liftoff app so I guess Connect still hasn’t been updated to work well with these links yet. These apps are all new so some bugs should be expected.
Doesn’t seem to work with the ‘official’ Jerboa app either.
There appearsto be an extra space in the link before the " )". I’m also using Connect. Hopefully OP can address that.
If the links don’t work, you can just search for the communities through your app’s search feature, or on the website itself.

Nothing like a good old awesome lemmy list
Really appreciate the list!
Sadly the r/dota2 community doesnt seem to have migrated that much. Which is a shame because everyone from pro players to valve use it as an official means to communicate.
From the way the mods of that subreddit behaved, it was pretty clear that they didn’t care at all about the protests. They made a poll and ignored the like 60% that wanted the protest to continue.
Thank you so much! I saved this post. 😁
My addition to this would be !lemmyapps@lemmy.world, for a good list of apps you can try out. Note that while it says apps, this also covers browser extensions and PC web apps.
…also note I have never linked before, so I have no idea how that is going to turn out.
Thank you so much for this list! Super helpful.
