This may be a stupid question, but how do you decide in what community to ask questions? (quokk.au)

I want to try asking more questions online since it has become so difficult to find things with search engines.

But I don't really know where to post my questions?
How do you decide what community to post to?

For example:
I have a question about meditation.
This looks pretty straightforward, I search for 'meditation' under all communities.
I find 2 communities called Meditation. (I can find more if I search on another lemmy instance, but they don't seem to show up on my current instance)
Both of them look rather inactive.

Do I just post to both of them? Is it possible to post to multiple communities simultaneously?
Should I look for other communities, what to search for?

Hey bro be the change you want to see in the world. Help me build the meditation community.

If you post a thread, I will respond.

I'd be happy to post any questions I have there. I tend to be online very infrequently though, so it might not be that helpful.

Community mention, to reach through web browsers: !meditation@feddit.online

Also added to Threadirator (the site allows private submissions)

And since I don't do meditation, I wouldn't know what to say to promote the community, but to those that do, I'd suggest making a post about it on !communitypromo@lemmy.ca too.
