A thread to find local communities

3 years ago by northernscrub to c/ukcasual

In !newcastleupontyne@lemmy.world we have a list of other UK communities in the sidebar. It might be nice if we can get a comprehensive list of the other UK based communites too, so if you run one or know of one, drop a link here. Make sure it's in the remote format so that they can be reached from any instance - this is !<communityname>@<instanceurl>. I don't think hyperlinking works properly yet, but there are active issues raised on the github to get it functional.

I tried a bit to get that going, but I don't think there was a lot of interest in people migrating from the other place. Shame :/

kbin.social seems to have a bit of bother when it comes to permitting other instances from accessing its activitypub feed. Unless I'm doing something wrong?

If you're from somewhere not covered in this thread and inexplicably wish to speak to your neighbours, try just chucking your city name or whatever into https://lemmyverse.net/communities

Getting some sort aggregated community (what was referred to as multi-sub-reddit or something like that) feature where I can have all the UK subs under one banner would be very useful.
