    Unfortunately the owner of this list doesn’t want to add unofficial communities on lemmy, so it’s a very limited list

      How is it even possible to have “official” vs “unofficial” categories in a decentralized, trust-based system that is designed to never be 100% interconnected?

        In the sense that it’s the “official” failover of an existing reddit community. Not that it’s the “official” lemmy community on a subject.

      Very dissapointing. I want a clear list of places that are basically equivalent to post our new communities to help guide users. If there’s an ‘official’ badge on there I don’t care, but this reeks of “Reddit mods want people to continue their power on Lemmy” to me.

      Yeah, it looks like its specifically for where the subreddit mods announced they are moving. Not just where people ended up.

      “Official” is such a strange term and im truly looking forward to the end of the “migration” period.

      I get that people want a similar experience to their reddit feed, but I dont understand why people see reddit affiliated communities as the best options.

      At some point its better to just tear the bandaid off.

    I found this really useful for locating equivalent communities in Lemmy. Hope you find it useful too.

      It is useful but I don’t think they’re equivalents. There’s probably multiple technology subreddit alternatives that I enjoy, none of them being a sole replacement.

    This is incredibly useful so is this official subreddits that moved or include equivalents that aren’t associated?

    I was on mobile so didn’t see the columns at first. I see that it let’s you know if it’s official or affiliated rated very cool.
