Just by checking https://lemmy.ml/communities one can see the most popular communities of lemmy.ml. The plan here is to list all the alternatives for those from other instances. One can also suggest alternatives to be added here and I update this living document.

    Some of these take an ethical step backwards. I see the pattern: lemmy.ml on the left-hand side, which is generally a good idea because lemmy.ml is centralized by disproportionate numbers. But when you have another quite large node on the RHS which is rendered strictly centralized by Cloudflare, you have a downgrade. E.g. the nodes lemmy.ca and lemmy.one should appear on the LHS, and for transparency I suggest tagging them with a lightening cloud (🌩).

      Far too obviously this list has aged like milk as Lemmy has grown so huge and better tools are available for finding different communities.

        I agree, but this list is pinned which made me think there’s an attempt to maintain it.
