Well, you've already found Lemmy+kbin, which IMHO is currently the best.

Mastodon can be cool, too, although you've really got to curate your experience, and the soapboxing that someone else mentioned is really present on there, too.

Well, and then there's also lobste.rs. It's invite-only. If I remember correctly, it has lots of BSD users at its heart, so those are at least people who are genuinely interested in technology, but yeah, the opinions you find on there can also be a bit one-sided as a result...

Any communities recommended to join?

The one most similar is probably https://programming.dev

Well, if you want content similar to HN, these are kind of that:

  • Verious communities called "technology" (these can be a bit heavy on the news, I don't know, if you want that)
  • Various Linux-related communities
  • There's two "ProgrammerHumor" communities, which are usually fun.
  • And of course, the community for your favorite programming language / technology.
