If you are German-speaking, your main instance of interest for communities will probably be feddit.org with the main community being !dach@feddit.org (and inofficially !ich_iel@feddit.org) - check it out if you haven’t yet

Gotta give props to !metal@lemmy.world . It’s genre specific, and slow, but active.

where’s the good porn. do not send me to lemmynsfw.

source
- davidgro@lemmy.world ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago
  There used to be pornlemmy but it died (and was too restrictive in my opinion)
  
  I don’t know why not the one you named, as far as I know it’s the only remaining general porn instance. There’s just a few scattered communities on other instances.
  
  There’s also a bit on Mastodon but mostly reposting from reddit.

Hey Blaze would be cool if you could add !sillydrawingrequests@sopuli.xyz to that list since it fits!

source
- Blaze@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago
  At some point I think I’ll just take over !index@lemmy.zip and list all active communities over there.
  
  I try to keep the list “manageable” but your community should definitely be there

This is a great post we should do a round up like this every few months. I know one of the hardest things was finding the right communities when so many were created and just became bot spam from reddit which did it a disservice since while it was from a good intent to create a bunch of content quickly. It stopped everyone from posting becase there was no engagement with OP. So it just looked like spam.
