Are there any communities you've not yet seen on kbin that you used to visit on Reddit?

Edit: So a lot of people don't know this, you can search for magazines on kbin here - https://kbin.social/magazines

I kind of miss DIWHY, always some good nonsense on there.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Combatfootage, NCD, gundeals, and liberalgunowners.

Awesome, thanks!

I also second combat footage and the ukraine war subreddits as well.

I miss all my hobby and crafting subreddits lol. Off the top of my head,
Woodworking / Beginners
Sewing / Knitting
Dioramas / Terrain Building
Painting
Survival / Preppers / Camping / OneBag / Travel

Not trying to out myself, but I don't see my Country / Region / City here yet.

Wouldn't mind some health, lifestyle, and research science.

Can we get AskHistorians on here??

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I think the biggest problem I have is that the magazines exist but have little to no activity.

I and a few other posted in /m/motorcycles but I don't think there's been any activity since.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Id love to have aviation related magazines. Also metalmemes or memes in general. Computerscience and programming would also be great. The problem is that im not too happy about the tankie infestation of lemmy an thus I try not to interact with it too much...

While I spent the most time on /r/fantasy, I miss /r/vexillologycirclejerk the most by far

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The circlejerk subreddits deserve an entire fediverse instance of their own. Not as a bad thing, but it will concentrate the expertise of meme development in a coherent place that encourages it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

new instance just dropped

no but seriously, I'm not sure if I agree with this. I really enjoyed seeing a post on either /r/vexillology or /r/vcj and then its corresponding post on the other one, especially if it was on /r/vcj first and then trying to figure out where tf it came from. And similar idea with /r/mapporncirclejerk and /r/geography. I think it would be a very different place if it were an entire instance dedicated to memes, and they'd lose their own identity to a large extent (not that they're not all invaded by /r/anarchychess already).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Is there no alternative to r/fantasy here? I've been able to find so many books and get many recommendations from there :(

HumansBeingBros

I spent most of my reddit time on video art subreddits.
Like r/stablediffusion r/curcitbending r/mediasynthesis and most of all r/videosynthesis

m/videosyntesis has been made, but is only me and the mod for now. Hopefully we can get people to migrate in time.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Formula 1 and Formuladank

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Mountain biking

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

r/beermoneyuk for me.. it was a good place for me to find some additional sources of online income (really helped me out this year as a student). I've created the magazine @beermoneyuk, just in case (if the mods ever show up I'll gladly give ownership to them), but I'm not sure if enough people will visit it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

r/UnresolvedMysteries. I really liked this subreddit. Now I took a look at the thread about API changes which is stickied there and it just seems a lot of people are asking "can someone explain to me what's going on/who cares about 3rd party apps" (and my favorite one - "it's all power-hungry mods' fault"), so it doesn't seem like the community will migrate from reddit.

I miss reading all the write-ups, not only about true crime but also other mysteries.

I'll also add: LiminalSpace and ididnthaveeggs (for all the insane recipe reviews lol).

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

We have m/LiminalSpaces here on kbin! Although not much in it due to the young age.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thank you, I subscribed! Hopefully it will take off :)

~~Btw, I got a notification about your reply, and I can see it on your profile, but I do not see it when viewing the thread. Not sure why.~~ Never mind, all is working now.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I miss r/gardening, r/zero waste, multiple subs about the war in Ukraine and some funny ones like AITA

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Legend, thank you. I just realised I can scroll to the bottom of kbin and click all magazines. This help me find some of my Reddit favourites too. Thanks for your help.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I submitted some roses questions to https://kbin.social/m/Plants and https://kbin.social/m/gardening I have gotten a few responses but nothing like I got from Minnesota gardening back on reddit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks for the links

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I just got into it this past February, but I'm really missing /r/wrc and /r/rally.

Also can't forget /r/Simpsonsshitposting

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

In the meantime, feel free to contribute to /m/Motorsports.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd love to see r/Marvel and r/DCcomics move over. Maybe some of the smaller ones I follow like r/dreamcast. But it'll take awhile I suppose.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

more fitness and sports related ones

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I just created a LesMills magazine in case you're interested

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A handful off the top of my head (not sure if these sub names are case-sensitive in any way or not):
QAnonCasualties
PeopleofWalmart
Engrish
Spokane (the city in WA)
Seattle
Boston
AntifascistsofReddit
Scala
Fsharp
fatlogic

I didn't think to save my subscription list (duh) and I'll be damned if I'm going to log in again to do so. I'm done with Reddit at least until they fire that absolute ass of a CEO and back off on all of his dumbshit money-grubbing schemes. That means 'probably never' and I'm 100% fine with that, fuck them and a hearty hello to the fediverse.

Some of the more niche ones, such as music composition or Euroleague Basketball. I doubt enough people migrate to a actually create a somewhat active community for those.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

You have magazines such as m/Musicproduction but currently empty due to the age of the site. I think most niche mags will be like that until we start filling them with content and they get discovered by users.
