A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Reddit had similar problems with finding subs - it was sometimes really difficult. But, honestly that was sometimes my favourite part. You'd randomly stumble upon a sub that you've never heard of that's super active.
I think there should be a way to easily find communities, but there's something fun about discovering a community out of nowhere.
The nice thing about Reddit being super centralized was that you could just append "reddit" to a Google search and find a community for anything under the sun. The distributed nature of lemmy makes it a little harder, but dedicated search indexes are already popping up and I'm sure they'll incorporate that kinda stuff back into the main lemmy instances sooner or later.
