This site offers a searchable directory of lemmies

https://browse.feddit.de/

This Lemmy has scripts to make it automatically federated with all lemmy instances, so its /all feed is a global /all feed.

There's a few subs designed for that as well:

This is a great way to find servers, but I don't see how i can use it to find specific communities. Let's say I wanted to see if a community has been created that discusses the book series The Wheel of Time. Is there a good way to look for this, within all the servers?

You could search on https:// browse.feddit.de - but it would depend what name had been given to the community (if one exists of course)

Had a look myself, and there is https:// lemmy.ml/c/wheeloftime :-)

Apart from the other ones people mentioned, you can search them on https://browse.feddit.de/. Happy lemming!
