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.
- there are community search engines at https://browse.feddit.de/ and https://lemmyverse.net/communities
- there are numerous other "find a community" and "community announcement" .. communities (list stickied; if you find another, comment pls)
- we will publish a Community Listing (at an as-of-yet-undetermined schedule)

!morbidquestions@sh.itjust.works
Be aware that there has been little or no activity, so the user base is essentially dead unless people run across it via the all feed.
That means not all responses will respect the need for morbid questions being answered honestly and with an actual answer rather than a "wtf" type of response.
Functionally, if you used r/morbidquestions, or the discord server related to it, you already know the rules. I can't recall if I got them set up in the about section/sidebar, but in general, asking for advice on how to commit a crime is going to get removed, as will requests about how to commit suicide.
Some subjects get extra scrutiny, and may be removed with no notice. The most common example of that is questions about pedophilia or rape. It was always a problem on reddit, so expect any questions or comments about those matters in specific to be eyeballed heavily, and removed if there's a hint of a problem.
A minimum degree of civility is necessary.
A minimum standard of usefulness is also necessary. Comments that don't answer a question, or relate to the question are most likely getting removed. Random comments attacking a poster will be removed and the account making them banned permanently.
I can't promise anyone will ever answer. I won't promise I'll give an answer to everything, but if I can, and have time, I'll try to give honest, accurate answers. I won't bullshit a genuine question, even if I find it distasteful personally. I'd just not answer at all. I encourage anyone using the community to hold to that standard as well.
