🌐 Instances to look through
You can find communities from specific instances
A great way to find lesser known communities is to look at the /communities
page on an instance. Different instances may have different themes or focuses, and so you can find related communities that way.
For example: https://lemmy.ca/communities
- pangora.social: Great way to find instances related to a particular topic. This is also great for picking an instance when first making an account/moving accounts.
- awesome-lemmy-instances
🔎 Search Engines
When you have a topic in mind, but don't know if a community exists for it

Might be useful but I just stumbled across Lemmy Community Boost - it seeds a community across a range of the big instances.
