!right2repair@discuss.tchncs.de

An older community, but though I'd post it here for visibility.

You think it's BS how companies keep you from repairing your stuff? Join us!

Hey guys, I created this community to promote and talk about the UnifiedPush project. It aims to create a free and open source alternative to Google's proprietary Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). Quite a few apps have already adopted the UP protocol, but there are still many FOSS apps lacking support for it. I will post GitHub issue threads where UP integration in FOSS apps is being discussed. I will also post about new apps that gained UnifiedPush support, and other useful tools that help with using UP. If you want to stay up-to-date about ongoing developments in the Android FOSS ecosystem in regards to push notifications, consider subscribing to !unifiedpush@lemmy.dbzer0.com

I also recommend following the official Mastodon account, joining the Matrix room and donating to support development!

!parenting@lemmy.world

!dataisbeautiful@mander.xyz

Following this thread on !fedigrow@lemm.ee, we decided to create a new "dataisbeautiful" community on mander.xyz (thank you again guys!)

Took us a bit of time as they were having federation issues until recently, but now everything works fine!

!movies@lemm.ee

We have quite a lot of activity over there, but it's always good to promote it as some new joiners may have missed it.

Also shout-out to

• !animation@lemm.ee
• !television@lemmy.world
• !marvelstudios@lemmy.world

!marinemammalrescue@lemmy.ca

For updates on the patients and activities of MMR, as well as Marine Mammal related content in general. It's the season for a lot of rescues right now, so hopefully there is a good bit of content.

I'm planning to eventually see if the organization wants to take over the community officially

> The Vancouver Aquarium Marine Mammal Rescue Society (VAMMR) is a global leader in marine mammal rescue, research, and rehabilitation. [They] respond to over 300 marine mammal emergencies each year and operate Canada’s only dedicated marine mammal hospital facility.

!dailygames@lemmy.zip

A new community to discover and share daily games like Wordle, Jumblie etc.

Searching Lemmyverse is good for finding communities. !trendingcommunities@feddit.nl is also a nice tool for finding new places.

I posted this on the other site but I thought I'd copy over here too, lots of good communities around to subscribe to if you want a more casual/fun frontpage that isn't just tech news, elon musk, or politics.

note: all of these communities have posts. If they appear empty, it simply means nobody on the instance you use has visited them before (or you might have blocked them and forgot, I've done it before, lol)! I will try to keep this thread updated over time.

Note: if you wish to auto-subscribe to all of the communities below, I have a post in the comments that describes how to do so.

--- My rough criterion was:

• Of interest to me or a wide audience
• Has a decent amount of activity
• Casual / fun / interesting / cool / funny / chatty communities.
• 0 negativity/negative vibes, news, politics, overload of tech or niche tech news/info, etc.

Music

Lots of music communities on Lemmy. Search Lemmyverse for genres of interest for more, this definitely isn't exhaustive.

Note that music communities generally have low comment counts, from my experience.

• I made a fuller list of British music genres/communities/artists here (e.g grime, dnb, jungle, uk hh, idm, rock/metal/punk, etc)

There's also:

!linux@programming.dev

As usual with the fediverse, choice is key.

There were quite a few complaints on !fediverse@lemmy.world about !linux@lemmy.ml not having any real alternative (https://reddthat.com/post/20166234), so let's see if we can revive the programming.dev one.

And if it fails, at least we tried.

!imaginary@reddthat.com

Created this community as a fan of the Imaginary Network on Reddit.

I had a chat with other people maintaining other Imaginary communities on Lemmy (directory is !imaginarydirectory@lemm.ee ), they wanted to try a different approach, I just wanted a generic fantasy / futuristic community to change from !traditional_art@lemmy.world and !artporn@lemm.ee

!steamedhams@lemmy.ca

With so many versions of the scene, and more being created, there should be lots of content.

I hope you enjoy!

!eurovision@lemmy.world is a place for all fans of the Eurovision Song Contest.

In addition to hosting live threads during the shows, you can find background info posts and memes.

!retrostatus@retrolemmy.com is a community celebrating retro.

From the sidebar:

For posts on the big anniversaries of retro games, gaming hardware, and more.

• 15 years - Old
• 20 years - Retro
• 25 years - Retro Silver
• 30 years - Retro Gold
• 35 years - Retro Platinum (and every 5 years after)

!coolguides@sopuli.xyz

All the maths community I found are either

• Chill/memes
• Homework help

Here I offer a community that do challenges not word riddles

• Anyone can post their own challenges.
• I will be posting daily to ensure a fresh stream of content will keep everyone entertained.

(This is a new community, if you enjoy maths, come help yourself.)

Lemmy’s home for all you’re alternate history needs. We have memes, stories, and new writing prompts every week!

Just popping in to post about a community to discuss FOSS creative software like GIMP, Inkscape, Scribus, Kdenlive, Blender, etc...

https://lemmy.ca/c/open_creative

I've used them all at one time or another. Since moving to FOSS as much as possible ten years ago, I've learned a LOT about most of the programs, and consider myself a near expert in some (Kdenlive, GIMP) and fairly competent in others (Blender, Scribus).

I feel like having a place where anyone who uses FOSS creative software can both ask questions, share advice, and celebrate each others works, would be a nice addition to the Fediverse.

So feel free to join and post your work, your questions, your news or your tips and tricks.

I'm a one man band as far as modding and maintaining for now, so thanks in advance for your patience while I learn how it all works on the back end.

A curated feed to help you find the best the internet has to offer.

!inmymind@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Come check out !weirdwest@lemmy.zip for discussions on the Weird West genre, including movies, books, and video games that fit the genre!

!shortstories@literature.cafe

Regularly posting new short stories to discover. Step into this community where you can immerse yourself in the world of short stories! Each story offering a unique glimpse into the creative minds of talented authors. Whether you crave suspense, heartwarming tales, or thought-provoking ideas, there's something for everyone. I also occassionally post analysis of a short story or meta conversations about short stories.

Ps. This is also a great instance to be on! You can discover some great communities in the sidebar too.

Is there a community where people share their own projects?

I have some self-made applications and think they may be useful for others too, so I want to present them.

I already looked into some of the FOSS communities, but they seem more to be for news and discussions of established software.

Thank in advance for any tip.

What is it

Let's Talk About Games aims to be a place where fans of videogames come together to talk about the hobby they love, the culture around that hobby and the ways in which we interact and enjoy it.

Maybe you've played a cool game that you'd like to talk about, or perhaps you've watched a really interesting deep-dive into your favourite games lore that you feel needs to be shared. That's the sort of thing we're going for.

If that sounds like it might be for you then pop on over and join in the conversation.

I saw a couple posts of someone asking for help with their homework, and thought it might be a good idea to have our own dedicated Homework Help community.

If you're taking classes, or even better yet, have passed classes, please subscribe to !hwh@lemmy.world. I will do my best to answer what I can, but admittedly I've been out of school for a long time, so I'd really appreciate your help with this project. Also, we can't help anyone if we don't have questions to answer, so please don't hesitate to ask!
