A community having a Reddit mod or two isn’t necessarily more “official” than another that has mods who were never Reddit mods, it’s a stupid argument advanced mostly by Reddit mods who want to preserve the same role on the Fediverse. Being a mod on Reddit is not a spectacular achievement that you should put on your resume
Completely fair point. I know a lot of reddit mods get too attached, it becomes too big a part of their self identity etc. When I found the sub.rehab site I didn’t think too hard about it. At first glance it just seemed to fill my needs. I will try the lemmyverse search. 2 of 3 comments on this post recommended it. What’s funny is that I found the 3 I’ve already tried by trying to read sticky/pinned posts to answer my questions before making my own post!
The fragmentation thing I’ll just have to adjust to. I actually miss the days of forums. You can still find and entire forum for your 2003 car for example with limitless knowledge on it (unless it was all photobucket based…). Anything is better than Discord (grumble).
On reddit (and I know you said not to try and replicate it but I don’t think that applies here) I was never much interested in memes, shitposting, /r/all etc. I subscribe to a sub for all my hobbies (gaming, snowboarding, my sports teams etc) and that’s about it.

Both yourself and AlmightySnoo above have recommended lemmyverse.net to find communities. I’ll give it a shot. What’s funny is that I found all the sites I mentioned in the Sticky post on Lemmy. So much for trying to learn before asking!
2 Where are you getting links to Lemmy content that you are trying to open?
The one I used in my example I just picked a random post. I have been sent links in a message by a friend who switched from reddit earlier than me.
