What are some good discussion communities on lemmy?
-
I just realized I don't have many discussion communities on my feed. My feed is filled with all news articles and I rarely find any posts written by people to discuss stuff. The communities where they discuss normal life stuff or anything in particular, majorly with texts, is what I want, idk what you actually call them.
Thanks.

Check these two
They are PieFed communities but you can join them from Lemmy

[email protected] (not accessible from lemmy.world)
[email protected] (inactive, server shut down)[email protected] is a mix of news articles, discussion and anything Canadian that doesn't really fit well anywhere else.

I'm still trying to understand the difference between Lemmy and PieFed, but they seem to be fully interoperable...?

[email protected] is also pretty good.

I mean, an incorrectly-operating washing machine can make things quite exciting indeed.

The Threadiverse has multiple intercompatible "Reddit-alike" software packages.
-
Lemmy (the biggest). Example: https://lemmy.world/ Written in the Rust programming language.
-
PieFed. Example: https://piefed.social/ Written in the Python programming language.
-
Mbin (the successor of the defunct Kbin project). Example: https://fedia.io/ Written in the PHP programming language.
There's also Sublinks, written in Java, but I don't know for sure whether that's going to actually get the ball rolling. https://demo.sublinks.org/ Think they need more developers contributing.
EDIT: Note that while this approach is unusual for the centralized Web-oriented social media era, where typically one company controls the whole shebang and has one codebase, it is common for federated systems. There are many different NNTP server implementations for Usenet, many different XMPP server implementations for instant messaging, many different IRC server implementations for chat, many different SMTP server implementations for email, many different FidoNet implementations.

It's always awesome to see the community I created mentioned in the wild!
I also created [email protected] as an independent alternative.

Threadiverse is a term for Fediverse platforms that provide threaded conversations, like Lemmy, PieFed, Mbin, NodeBB. The term was used before Meta's Threads was a thing.

some of these are "ask" communities which sometimes turn into discussions

TIL, and sometimes news.
