Bonus: don't have time and want to just auto-subscribe to all* (mostly, I forgot to add some I think) of these communities (please note this isn't reversible without manually unsubbing yourself, there's a lot of niche communities here that may not appeal to you - you can remove them from the JSON file if needed)?

• On PC, download this JSON file.
• On PC, download Lemmy Migration Tool
• Enter instance name and login details, upload JSON.
• It'll automatically subscribe you to them all. If it looks like it's frozen, it hasn't. Just let it run. If you're on a small instance, you may need to re-run it a couple times (it can error if your instance hasn't discovered the community yet, this is solved on a rerun).
• Note: this will change your lemmy settings (e.g disable NSFW). No way around this, change back if needed.

Of course, some may not be of interest or may overload your feed (meme communities can do this). Unsubscribe as needed.

I wrote this list for a curious person on the other site. It took me awhile, figured I'd share. Finding these places takes more time than I'd care to admit so... hopefully it saves you some, Lol.
It's not an exhaustive list by any means, but is mostly places I find of interest and/or I think has good content. But there's definitely others out there I have missed (either intentionally or not). Lemmyverse is a great resource for finding new places.

My rough criterion was:

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

Worth noting that Aliucord relies on a very outdated version of Discord. Vendetta is worth using if you want the newer features to work well
