I'm thinking of like "Is there a [blank]" or "Where would I find [blank]" sort of community where one might ask things like, "Is there a creator/YouTube channel/blog covering [blank]" or "Where would I find a durable [blank]?"

Sort of a general looking for [thing/source] community, rather than personal help/care kind of community (as I know some of those are around).

Atm I think the AskLemmy communities are sorta being used for these questions, so I'm guessing maybe there isn't an alternative?

I find the question too circuitous to follow.

Are you looking for a specific community? Or a community to ask about other communitys?

Are you looking for a specific community?

A specific community. Sorry the question is...As it is, but it's asking about a general help finding things community. Like for specific sites/tools/creators/products/etc. This is in contrast to this community, advice/personal help communities, and the AskLemmy communities which are about looking for communities, specific personal advice/help, or asking open-ended questions respectively.

Hope that helps clarify the question!

As with /r/411 this is where you ask what Community you're looking for but not finding. Perhaps a bit more helpful now that some communities are only found on certain instances.

Found/new community announcements - there are numerous "announcement type communities - see https://lemmy.ca/post/612532

There is also !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca

Before you request There are several resources available to find communities and resources and these have been pinned to the top.
