If you’re new to Lemmy, it can be hard to find communities to subscribe to. Unlike monolithic sites like Reddit, federated sites require you to discover the communities (and the sites they reside on) yourself.

Here at lemmy.ninja, we’ve found a lot of good communities that you can access from the communities section of this server. To find more, I decided to plumb one of the largest Lemmy sites, lemmy.ml, to see what its users are subscribed to. I took the top 2000 sites listed at lemmy.ml and sorted them according to the number of posts in the community. Check out the full list here.

Keep in mind that the list heavily favors communities on lemmy.ml, but it’s a start!
