Personally I'm just going to miss the oddly specific meme subreddits like r/breadstapledtotrees and r/suspiciousquotes

Noncredibledefense of all the subs I'm jonesing for that one the most.
I miss fantasy writers and magic building. I would even be willing to moderate them. But I lack any skills to contribute to them. Not to mention Iβm worried that most people are not interested in move as writing subreddits struggle to get off ground.
I need to see my "Imaginary" art again. There were so many subs with so much variety.
Very niche, but I would love to see a (bullet) journaling community on here. it was one of my favourite places to go on reddit. Also miss the fantasy community, but as I understand it, there are a lot of new communities in beta related to favourite authors and such.
Personally I don't care at all, but I've got a few friends hoping for a good gun group similar to liberalgunowners.
I would like a video group like r/unexpected and r/kidsarefuckingstupid for funny vids to share with my wife at bedtime.
Right now I feel like a new interesting and active community is appearing every hour or two so I'm not in a rush, I'm enjoying watching the whole lemmiverse taking its first big steps
https://lemmy.world/c/kidsbeingderps has a similar idea as r/kidsarefuckingstupid as per the sidebar.
Thereβs also an unexpected on lemmy.ml but itβs dead so maybe someone with a bunch of good videos/gifs can start to populate it or make a new one here.
I'd like to find a good archery community. I think I want to pick it up as a hobby, but don't know where to start.
Here are the subreddits I would miss the most:
- Am I the Asshole
- LegalAdvice
- Parenting / Daddit
- thingsmykidsaid
- whatisthisthing
...and all of the local/regional subreddits for cities / metro areas around the world.
Definitely all the question-answer subreddits, like AskScience, AskScienceFiction (though for the love of god please call it AskFiction this time), NoStupidQuestions, TooAfraidToAsk, ChangeMyView (with the Delta bot), AskMeAnything.
AskReddit equivalent already exists: [email protected].
My list
Funsies & Weird brainstorming
- /r/competitiveoverwatch aka /r/cow (I don't play the game but I sure enjoy the juice)
- /r/hobbydrama (very diverse type of juicy dramas, miam!)
- /r/overwatchTMZ (/r/cow but extended)
- /r/valorantcompetitive (same reasoning for the OW one)
- /r/livestreamfail (don't post there; but is fun to occasionally lurk and see funny stuffs and be up to date with the latest online juicers)
- /r/anarchychess
- /r/singularity
- /r/BestofRedditorUpdates
- and 20 more cute animal pictures/videos subreddits like /r/partyparrots, /r/happycowgifs, etc.
Stuffs I use for er..... productivity! yeah yeah productivity, that's right!
- /r/obsidianmd I enjoy seeing other people's workflow and new tools being developed
- /r/chatgpt (Recently the main sub went to shit with the influx of new users so /r/chatgptcoding or /r/chatgptpro might be better lol)
Subreddits that I often get led by Google search engine and it would be sad if they were to go down perpetually since I would have a very hard time without them...
- /r/homelab
- /r/automation
- /r/selfhosted
- /r/datahoarder
- /r/android
- /r/sysadmin
- /r/kitchenconfidential
- /r/appliancerepair/
I'm also very interested in how some different jobs work so I subbed out to these to check on them occasionally... and they sometimes would provide interesting workflows/insights that I can a-hem, take inspiration from...
- /r/ExperiencedDevs/
- /r/accounting
- /r/uxdesign
There's way more but I visit those a bit less, the problem is, I'm not sure if Lemmy can fill the void in my heart but if it does for those main ones (all above) then I think that I can permanently migrate from Reddit.
As others have said, anarchy chess is here already as is chatgpt
m/sinkpissers π
r/hockey
A big one I'll miss is the Diablo subreddit. It was filled with contentious assholes, but the content was typically good.
don't tell me you're a Diablo Dad?
How else am I supposed to ignore my children?
Some game specific ones. Like, Satisfactory, Elden Ring. A Boomer Shooter specific magazine/community might be nice. There's a Toronto biking specific subreddit, but not sure threadiverse is big enough to have enough bicyclists from Toronto for it yet
I'd like to see something similar to r/bigbangedmemes or r/blackholedmemes, these subs are about editing heavily a meme screenshot/image at the point to turn it into an un-understandable trippy image, at a point where it's almost a form of art. They are still public on reddit right now so I don't know if it's a good idea to create an alternative here already.
A populated aquarium/fishkeeping community
What I'm missing the most:
-
AmateurRoomPorn, FemaleLivingSpace, MaleLivingSpace and similars. Plenty of ideas on how to decorate my home, suggestions,..
-
OneOrangeBraincell, Flonkers, MurderMittens, ToeFeathers, PouchCatatoes and other 'niche' cat subreddits. I can survive with the already existing IllegallySmolCats and Cats, I guess.
-
GifRecipes, ShittyGifRecipes, ShittyFoodPorn. Ones for learning new stuff to cook, others.. for learning what NOT to cook thankyouverymuch.
-
HistoryMemes
-
Tattoos
-
Submechanophobia
I'd love to see one for my state and one for my city, I was surprised they didn't exist
@thx1138 When I saw there wasn't one for my state on Kbin or Lemmy, I made /m/Utah. So maybe you can be the change in the world and make your state one. π
Well maintained state / city / town subs are such an incredible resource I absolutely hope to see more pop up
