Cyberdeck & cassettefuturism

Jeopardy for daily show breakdowns

Local sports teams

A few gaming ones, but I suspect they're here somewhere too

Most of my favorites have a discord, but that just doesn't feel the same. Very hard to wade through all that chatter

The various graphics programming subreddits. Weren't super active but every now and again there were some mind-blowing posts.

• Daddit
• Datahoarder
• NBA
• LegalAdvise
• Pokémon

/woodworking folks posting about the stuffy the build out of wood.

I’ll miss all my goofy cat subreddits. They were kind of my go to when I was having a crap mental health day.

I'm a bug enthusiast, so insect specific subreddits like r/moth r/weevil r/entomology

Game ones for all my random niche games I like.

But also I have a lot of health problems so going to those specific subs with my specific problem and knowing I'm not crazy felt really liberating. I know there's a new disability thing on here, but collectively being in a community with the people who have my specific problem made me feel less alone.

• Prequelmemes
• Freefolk
• Bumpers

/r/satisfactorygame, cause its a great game, and its subreddit was a great source for knowledge and ideas. Also, /r/hardware, for the same reasons.

r/emulationonandroid and r/androidgaming

Where my r/futurama_sleepers at

r/WhatIsThisThing, r/TipOfMyTongue, and similar subreddits. Some of the simplest and best examples of the power of crowdsourced knowledge. Take a simple question with a simple answer that is basically impossible to search through conventional means, but through the power of those communities you can get your answer in minutes. Simply amazing.

Lemmy is going to have to get huge before it can really replace them. :/

r/imaginarysliceoflife

/r/aoe2 was one of my favorites. I hope plenty of users decide to make the switch.

I participated quite a bit in r/whatsthisbug and r/spiders helping identify bugs (mostly spiders) for people. It was something I really liked doing, especially educating people about how spiders aren't things to worry about. Guess I'll just head back to iNaturalist for that content.

Other than that, more niche gaming communities were a big one for me. r/puzzleanddragons is a mobile game I play often and the sub was super helpful for news and game discussion/guides. I hope it can kick off here.

I'm subscribed to a lot of band/artist subreddits, so I'm going to miss them

To be honest, I won't really miss any specific subreddit. Many of the niche and hobby ones that I cared for, I would not subscribe to, because of the low-effort posts.

I will miss site:reddit.com most of all.

R/daddit a big group of wholesome Bandit wannabes that I could really relate to.

I will miss hobbydrama, subredditdrama, disneyvacation, and then a bunch of the smaller niche music subreddits dedicated to different types of metal, indie rock, and electronic music. This is actually my first post in the fediverse and I am hoping that enough of this type of stuff can find a home as the fediverse grows. I might just have to make some of the niche music ones myself.

I like small ones like philately, wax sealers, heraldry, Northern Ireland, etc.

r/FunnyAnimals. For some reason, it made me sleep better at nights. A few funny videos with pets and I could end my day with a smile.

Looking at all the answers in this thread, i realised I might miss Reddit (subreddits) more than I thought.

Is there a way of finding popular communities across the federated lemmyverse? And on a smaller scale can I find popular communities on my instance?

Edit: leaving for posterity, but! there’s a “local” and an “all” in the communities browser: https://lemmy.world/communities/listing_type/All/page/1

r/196 - Everyone seems to have split off into 4-5 different groups, which kinda sucks. r/TwoXChromosomes, r/Lies, r/HuskyTantrums, r/UkraineConflict, r/HyruleEngineering, r/bonehurtingjuice, r/catbongos,

Let's create them here, this could be the beginning of something beautiful!! Btw, Lemmur or Jerboa like app for Lemmy? 🤔

r/houseplants and r/food. I loved browsing aimlessly through all the pictures and seeing pets in the background.

r/internet_funeral They have surreal textual art which was pretty cool

Not gonna lie, but for me, it's gonna be mostly the hobby relaxed ones like

• r/diydrones
• r/fpv
• r/radiocontrol because I don't think many of them are willing to switch to another platform. The tech subs about 3d printing and stuff already exist here and simply need to grow.

Subreddit drama.

At the moment, /r/horrorlit is one of the subs I browse the most and I haven't found a specific replacement for.
