There are many lemmy instances in the world, but currently most people are using lemmy.world. This is why everything has gotten so slow.

Community discovery on Lemmy so far feels incredibly difficult. Even browsing "all" I feel I get the same 10-15 communities in rotation.

How am I supposed to find the medium-sized communities about specific subjects that don't end up on "all?"
