What are some equivalent communities to reddit's popular communities on Lemmy?

Was just banned from Reddit because I dared to use Tor (which I am using rn) and comment something. Since my account was new the mod banned me, I have 1k other reddit accounts, so not knowing I was banned, I posted in the same community with other accounts, thus three accounts are permanently banned.

Now, I made a resolve to not go back to Reddit and instead use Forums and Lemmy. Now, how do you navigate lemmy? I mean, I know how, but are there any communities to help me navigate Lemmy, like an equivalent for reddit's r/findareddit and others which you have found to be interesting.

Ooh this one's new to me. I was just looking through my old sub lists while waiting for my GDPR data download from reddit and wondering if there was something like this. Thanks!

This would be great if we had some way to easily export those results into our subscriptions on our instance instead of going through one by one and joining.

actually this is pretty useful, just not for the job I was looking for. But nvm, I use firefox and I found an alternative community for r/firefox, so thank you1

If you use the Voyager Lemmy app, it has the functionality to migrate Reddit subs to Lemmy communities. It'll do a search and give suggestions of what to follow. Not every sub from Reddit is on Lemmy, but a bunch of the more popular ones are.

I mostly just search by name for communities with the same names as the subreddits I used to follow, many of them exist here. There are community directories and communities for finding new communities but I'm not the one to help with that.

Have a look at the other comments, I think they might help you as much as they helped me.
