When I mean “specific,” I mean things like something dedicated to a certain genre, a certain video game, to gaming suggestions, to asking whether you should buy a certain game… anything that isn’t just one catch-all for any video gaming topic. So I’m not including the various !games@instance or !gaming@instance links.
EDIT: There seems to be an issue with kbin that is causing problems with my links and sending some people to the kbin.cafe search results for the community. Will probably make a new post and link to it here when the problem is solved, or copy/paste my source text on a different account.
I know about the following and will be adding to this list with links people comment with:

I did use the Lemmy style.
I was told to use
!community@instance… so that’s what I’m using here
This is also what constantly pops up in Lemmy sidebars.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance:
!communityName@instanceName
Unless you mean that the Lemmy style is just !community, you don’t type after it. Did you mean that?
I was under the impression the way I typed the links would work for everyone. I suppose I was taught incorrectly and I’m extremely frustrated by it. I don’t want to be the village idiot trying to help only to require everyone fix their mistakes for them but it seems that’s what I am right now.
I just want to say, I don’t think you’re the village idiot. The fediverse is honestly pretty confusing right now and I would have expected what you used to work too.
This list is so comprehensive, I’ve been looking at it for quite a while and found lots of communities I hadn’t seen before. Thanks for posting it!
