I'm here from reddit, and thank you for these recommendations. Time for my neuroplasticity to kick in so I can learn how all this works.

!genderqueer@lemmy.one

We're open for all!~

Just wanted to say, thanks for hosting this instance! I'm a reddit refuge and this Lemmy instance has been really straightforward on how to get started.

Avoid beehaw

Work Reform & Unionizing! - !workreform@lemmy.world

Should this be edited to remove Beehaw now that they have de-federated?

Time to wait for the cat ones

Join us for all your sports talk over at https://fanaticus.social! We've got communities for all the major sports and their teams.

I also spent the past week forking the popular game day bot, redball, in order to bring game bots to lemmy! There are still a couple of kinks I'm working out but I've begun rolling them out to the teams' communities, starting with the baseball communities.

Check out:

• !baseball@fanaticus.social
• !cfb@fanaticus.social
• !nfl@fanaticus.social
• !nba@fanaticus.social
• !hockey@fanaticus.social
• !fantasyfootball@fanaticus.social
• !fantasy_baseball@fanaticus.social
• !fantasyhockey@fanaticus.social

And all the teams-specific communities!

I'm late to getting games so I was very happy to find https://sh.itjust.works/c/patientgamers with how patientgamers was one my favorite communities back on reddit.

Does anyone know of any communities for pigeons or capybaras (or tbh any other weird-but-cute critters)?

Edit: adding some as I find them:

• https://lemmy.world/c/opossums
• https://possumpat.io/c/possums

Theres some sciencey ones on Mander.xyz :

!chemistry@mander.xyz

!physics@mander.xyz

!biology@mander.xyz

Mander has a list that is really long of many different disiplines so I just grabbed the ones that I thought would of intrest

A version of r/nostupidquestions: !nostupidquestions@mander.xyz

Does anyone have recommendations for communities on camping, hiking, and backpacking? Much appreciated.

I was going down the universal search tool list, subscribing to the communities that I was interested in, and I ran into an issue trying to sub to some of the communities. Thankfully I was able to quickly find the answer - anything that is on the block list under https://lemmy.one/instances you are not able to subscribe to from this instance.

!hfy@lemmy.world - A community for people who write or enjoy reading HFY themed fiction.

What is HFY?

While traditional science fiction often presents humans as vulnerable masses seeking refuge from menacing aliens or as feeble beings overshadowed by aliens with superior logic, strength or empathy. HFY disrupts these archetypes by challenging the norm.

In the world of HFY, humanity is bestowed with exceptional qualities, giving rise to a sense of optimism and empowerment within the reader. It seeks to uplift and inspire, demonstrating the potential of human greatness and the capacity for overcoming seemingly insurmountable odds.

Monero moved to...

monero.town

https://lemmy.world/c/skywind

Skywind is officially on lemmy. They are Skyrim mod group that is doing a full conversion mod of Morrowind.

Hi! Does anyone know any good communities about the following topics:

-longboarding

-possum pictures and/or possum memes

Memmy for iOS makes it super easy to find and join communities. Highly recommended.

I appreciate you taking the time to share! I’ve only messed with Mastodon briefly and the fediverse is a little challenging to navigate at first (in my opinion).

I’ve been a lurker on the subreddit for ages and when I saw your post I decided it was time to check Lemmy out. Thanks for taking the time to set up an instance to keeps the community alive as Reddit implodes. Hopefully this works out or at least can act as a temporary home until we can figure out what is next.

How can I create some for lemmy.one?

I've also found this post to be really helpful:

The growing list of subreddits going to be dark, but these are Lemmy or /kbin equivalents

For those who missed /r/gamedeals and /r/buildapcsales while browsing lemmy

• https://lemmit.online/c/buildapcsales
• https://lemmit.online/c/gamedeals

It pulls in posts from the reddit subs.

Where are my fellow C programmers? And those who prefer Basic ( qb64 and Gambas welcome too)?

Thank you for this. It's a nice starting point.

Can somebody recommend me a community for people with cPTSD or abusive parents?

Is there an OutOfTheLoop? I keep finding vague allusions to beehaw defederating lemmy.world, but I have no idea where to ask what happened.
