Same here. I like the idea of Lemmy but the decentralization makes it really difficult to find the content I want. Reddits centralization, while causing some problems, definitely made it easy to find communities. That lack of ease is what makes Lemmy not as easy to use for new people.
Have you checked out !lemmy411@lemmy.ca? For some reason I don’t see it mentioned or linked to much, but it’s basically that, which I think would feel much more approachable to new people than pointing them to tools like Lemmyverse (as much as I do really appreciate it).
Same here. I lurk more on Lemmy but if I want to discuss some niche topic then Reddit is so easy to I don’t use that fucking app though, website or 3rd party.

Another good one for sharing communities you’ve stumbled across would be !wowthislemmyexists@lemmy.ca.
Saved both communites, but don’t tell me this. Tell it to: @JaymesRS@literature.cafe

Same, but I only use it for TV show discussions. I haven’t been on the main page since June.
