    Search, people link to them, looking at community lists on interesting instances, etc. Honestly browsing by all as it currently exists is one of the worst ways to find new communities. Maybe that could be improved but that’s where it stands today.

      This, and via crossposting. I discovered a couple of interesting communities because someone cross-posted stuff I was interested in to those communities. Likewise, I try to cross-post my own post to some popular communities, and niche communities to give them more visibility.
