Is there any lemmy community for finding and discussing other communities, in the sense of "Hey, I am interested in this and that topic, which community should I join?"

https://browse.feddit.de/ Is a global list of communities across instances, other than that you could try watching !newcommunities@lemmy.world

Not exactly what you asked for, but I found one for new communities. I've subbed to some I found there.

[–] INeedMana@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

There is also community search.

[–] Glunkbor@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

You can check out Lemmy community-browser , maybe there you find new communities that would be interesting for you

In addition to the ones already mentioned, I'm also subbed to wow this lemmy exists and community promo

Ironically, I get

404: couldnt_find_community

I'm trying to access it from my home instance (to be able to subscribe). I place both your and my link side by side:

    https://lemmy.ml/c/wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca
 https://lemmy.click/c/wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

When following your link, I can view the /c but not subscribe. I could subscribe to other /c's just a few minutes ago.

What's wrong, what's a solution?

[–] hakase@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Probably, nobody from your instance has accessed it yet. So, you need to go to search and type in !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

Once you subscribe, others from your instance will be able to see it on /c/all too

[–] Spzi@lemmy.click 1 points 1 year ago

go to search and type in !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

"No Results". Tried a couple of times over a couple of minutes.

[–] AsepticFuturisticFox@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

I don't know if lemmy.directory still works but give it a try
