I am looking for a community to find moderators for my community and I have used several community search engines to search for communities to ask users if X community exists, but I have not been able to find any. Maybe someone in this community can help me to find out if such a community exists.

Have you already looked at the Lemmy verse community explorer?

[–] Xirup@yiffit.net 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but their searches are very weird, try searching for the term 'Ask' or 'Community' for example, you get communities that don't even have that word in the description or in their name.

I don't know of a better user interface, but you can grab the data directly and find what you want with Python or grep...
