Lemmy

On reddit there was /r/Serendipity, where a bot would would highlight a randomish post from a fringe subreddit with a little break down of age, number of subs, average comment length, reading level, then like a top of all time post, top of the month, and top of the week.

I would love something like this for instances and communities. Not like a direct copy necessarily, but a one stop place to share and cross pollinate communities. I feel like there's a ton of communities whose first hurdle will be userbase, and the easier it is for people to find and join, the richer the ecosystem will be.

For instance, I regularly used /r/hiphopheads on reddit, but it took me days to find !hiphopheads@sopuli.xyz (also, I don't know how to link communities/instances). I wonder how many of my most used subreddits have a lemmy analog that I don't know about because it's on an odd instance or something.
