Lemmy411 - Don't know where to find what you're looking for?

As with /r/411 this is where you ask what Community you're looking for but not finding. Perhaps a bit more helpful now that some communities are only found on certain instances.

Found/new community announcements - there are numerous "announcement type communities - see https://lemmy.ca/post/612532

There is also !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

Before you request There are several resources available to find communities and resources and these have been pinned to the top.

Can't find much on here, only found some regional UK and Canada/US stuff but that's about it, nothing general or international or anything. Where should I be looking if Lemmy doesn't have anything?

Looking for general stuff, just something to help me figure things out as I'm not an expert or anything, not familiar with these things at all.

Just anything that can act as a hub/referral place of sorts to direct me to where is most appropriate for my needs

That actually sounds like !lemmy411@lemmy.ca which means you're in the right place!😆🤗

Thx for this!

Though sadly most of the ones you've listed seem dead, very small, or inactive. I'm guessing there's still not much on here yet, so do you know of anything outside of Lemmy? I've been trying to search but can't find anything besides strictly regional stuff.

no worries!

Unfortunately so.
However I'd still encourage you to make a post on those communities (esp the ones on our Canadian🍁 ones hehe :3) cause you never know who might be willing to help till you reach out!~🤗

so do you know of anything outside of Lemmy? I've been trying to search but can't find anything besides strictly regional stuff.

Most of what I know is related to Canada and US due to my interest and field in the tech industry, so my knowledge in general and international legal/financial resources is limited to those regions with a few exceptions like South Korea due to my heritage.

Since our PieFed has Topics and Flairs I'd imagine that we'll have a higher likelihood of finding general/international communities here especially as PieFed matures in addition to when more users migrate over and create those Tops.


If you'd like however feel free to send me a DM at @recursive_recursion:matrix.org and I’ll research resources for a couple regions of your choice for free, and you can decide to buy me a coffee if you like it.🌻
