Is there a community to find other communities?

FundMECFSResearch@lemmy.blahaj.zone to Fediverse@lemmy.world – 72 points –

I know !findacommunity@lemmy.ml exists, but I’ve blocked lemmy.ml…

Are there any alternatives?

Edit: !lemmy411@lemmy.ca exists, lol, I should have searched better.

Anyways I guess I’ll keep this post up if anyone needs in future.

Are you looking specifically for a community for communities? If not there's also Lemmy Explorer.

Sadly hasn't been updated since 6 days ago. I don't know why.

Yeah, it can take a while before new communities show up. Not much can be done about it I'm afraid.

It usually updates daily though. Check the burger menu at the top right. It shows you when the data was last updated. The README of the github page also says that "publish-pages" is failing, whatever that is.

I realize that but even those daily updates don't seem to catch everything. When I tried to bring some life to a community I was interested in it took a few weeks of activity before it showed up on the list. It's a great tool but it's not perfect.
