Interesting...I'm not familiar with most of those communities. There seems to be a theme of travel and IDK of any #Lemmy or #Lotide communities that do that. "Amazon of Deals" is probably technically adjacent to @Finance or @Lifestyle.
But if you don't see the community you're looking for, you can always create it.
> Likely I can find some or all of these, but they'll be spread across servers, and that's where I run into problems, how do I find stuff?
The trick I always use on that corner of the #Fediverse is use the three most popular instances of each software and see if they have the community you're looking for. The bigger the instance, the more likely they have a more complete view of the #Fediverse.
@realcaseyrollins @informapirata @piratepost Actually little of that is travel, STL is where I live, so that's local news, chat, etc, Canoo is a brand of electric vehicle that might some day go into production, Roadie is a package delivery service app that I drive for, hence the two Roadie and one courier group. Amazon of Deals is just a deal finding group, any deals that you find on the web can be posted there, and Idiots is dash cam videos.
That's where Lemmy loses me, I have no idea where to start looking, and some of these are oddball enough that likely I'll have to find the right corner of the fediverse.
