Getting the most out of fediverse communities
Hey all! recent reddit/twitter transplant and I'm trying to figure out how to get the most out of the fediverse and I really don't know? The lack of centralization is amazing, but it's also a bit overwhelming to try to figure out where people congregate and where to talk to people, especially when lemmy/kbin are so small relative to reddit. For those of you that have been here longer than a few days, how do you tend to engage with the fediverse? Any advice/places to hang out/content to recommend? Thanks!
It would be nice to automatically generate a sidebar of other instances that cover the same topic in the magazine/subreddit of your home instance that you’re currently browsing, because right now if I want to follow “gaming” as a general topic outside the kbin.social magazine, I have to search for it manually on those other instances or find someone from my home instance who posted a comment with the address to that topic in the external instance.
I’m sure each site has its own priorities right now, but a more streamlined search method for topics/interests would be awesome.
