Also notice that Lemmy is actually multiple sites connected together, so there might be more than one of each community, which can be confusing at first.
Nope. Best thing to do is browse all the posts on all the communities for a while and then start subscribing to the communities you think you might like. There is also https://lemmings.world/c/newcommunities@lemmy.world for new communities to advertise themselves.
Other ones on other instances, too.
What's your definition of main community?
a community here on this lemmy instance a bit like the main one on hexbear
No thanks
