SPORTS! The sports subreddits for specific leagues or teams were some of my most visited. I always hated r/NFL though because the mods only really allowed twitter links rather than legit discussion. I'm going to try and be as active as I can in the NFL and NBA communities here, and I might open some for my favorite teams.

This is actually a great opportunity to organically develop communities like r/NBAdiscussion but for other leagues. I always found reddit to be lacking a real football discussion subreddit, and r/NFL had such strict rules you couldn't even talk about relevant topics, such as EA and the NFL exclusive license (any Madden-related post would be auto-removed and told to post on r/Madden), and you also couldn't advertise an NFL discussion based sub anywhere either.

There's got to be an overlap between Lemmy users and sports fans! I can't be the only tech nerd who is interested in the fediverse and also loves American sports!
