I often want to ask for official reddit replacements or similar/same ones but don’t know at which sublemmy (community, which word is more appropriate?)

It’s community. But to answer your main question:
Well said, I’ll borrow some of your wording for the sidebar.
Just FYI, sub.rehab lists more than just Lemmy instances. I found a listing for a squabbles community in there, but that is not federated with Lemmy.
I always see the lemmyverse site recommended, but I have trouble subscribing to any community I find on there. If you click on a link on that site, it takes you to that instance. But you need an account on that instance to push the “subscribe” button. I can’t figure out a way to subscribe to, say, lemmy.world/c/technology when my account is on lemm.ee
There’s a house icon in the top right. Click that and set your home instance to lemm.ee. Now all the links will open in lemm.ee 🙂
Thank you! This has been driving me crazy. You are a hero.
I just use the native search on lemmy itself. Just use the All filter so you get all communities your instance has already federated with, then subscribe from there.
I’m a Lemmy newb, but what I’ve been doing is copying the instance address, and paste it into Jerboa if I’m mobile, or into a different tab where I’m logged into my instance on browser. It’s not hard, but it worries me that people aren’t going to understand it going forward. I’m hoping eventually it gets a little more integrated.
We get this question pretty often; I’ve just updated the sitebar with a few suggestions.
Removing this post under rule #3.
Ironically, you are asking for this in the wrong community as this one is not intended for Lemmy support. Anyway, you might find this tool helpful. The search functionality there actually searches through many instances, whilst your instance is likely to stumble into an unfetched community
https://lemmy.world/communities
Not sure of you can just replace “world” with “ml” to browse Lemmy.ml communities but it’s worth a try.
Then just scroll through the list to find what you’re looking for, hopefully.
