Someone has started a community curated list of subreddits that have made a Lemmy or Kbin Instance.
This will help people discover their niche commuities while also preventing fragmentation.

r/Melbourne is now [email protected]
r/PatientGamers is now [email protected]
Edit: I messaged the list maker on Mastodon.
there’s also https://redditmigration.com/
We have @PS2 as a replacement for both /r/PS2 and /r/PS2homebrew.
Thanks for the list! I’m still a noob at Lemmy and the fediverse, so was wondering if someone could please post how to subscribe to these via Jerboa. It’s easy enough to subscribe when you’re viewing a post in the app, but I don’t know how to add one from a URL.
You can’t add from URL because they’re not shown there in a form that the app would handle (if there even is one, I’m new to it too).
You can use the second button on the left on the bottom bar in Jerboa. It’s a screen that lists your subscribed communities but you can also search for other Lemmy communities. If their home instance federates properly you should be able to find them and then you can browse and subscribe.
It won’t work with communities at kbin.social because Jerboa doesn’t support Kbin, only Lemmy. Not sure if there’s any app with dual Kbin+Lemmy support just yet.
But how come posts I make on Lemmy are visible on kbin.social?
I suspect perhaps Kbin federates from Lemmy but not the other way around?
Thanks! Found some new communities. But some kbin.social communities do not load. for example [email protected]
edit: looks like you need to search whole address https://kbin.social/m/truegaming instead of !community@instance
What app are you using? I’m on Jerboa (Android) and its community search doesn’t come up with anything for the full URL.
I suspect it does not support Kbin, period.
I am using PWA on android. I didn’t try Jebroa yet.
PWA? haven’t heard of that one before, I swear there’s two new apps every day!
I really appreciate this, but I am not seeing 90% of the subreddits I used to be subscribed to appearing here, such as: r/todayilearned, r/damnthatsinteresting, r/funny, r/animalsbeingderps, r/personalfinance, r/outoftheloop, r/pics, r/oddlysatisfying and many more… I hope they come soon
The creator of the list is not adding unofficial communities in the index, so there might be the communities you’re looking for on Lemmy already.
If not, it’s still very early days so give it time each day many more communities are being created.
Does anyone know what will happen to r/lostmedia?
It’ll be lost.
Damn, I used to use subreddits like hashtags but I can’t anymore. Anyway here’s one for the road:
/r/YourJokeButWorse
/r/YourJokeButLost
/r/SubredditsAsHashtags
/r/SubredditsAsHashbrowns
