A couple, I think. WoTshow is one I really liked. And exatheist is a tiny sub where a bunch of people who were once atheists of all different religions talk religious philosophy.

It'd be great to have an actual place that isn't just Christians screaming that LGTBQ+ people are of the devil and need to burn, and at the same time not have edgelord atheists decrying that they have figured out everything and are smarter than everyone else

r/ultralight, r/myog and r/wildernessbackpacking

You can tell what I'm into.

[–] milescrusher@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Hello from !ultralight@lemmy.world, I always wanted more overlap between r/ultralight and r/myog personally, they go hand in hand. Stop by and say hi :)

[–] ScoopWondervill@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes please πŸ™πŸ½ I’m not going back to BPL…..

[–] InfiniWheel@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

r/kamenrider, r/supersentai or any of the tokusatsu subs for that matter

Thanks, I also found !kamenrider@lemmy.ml but it only has one post and two comments, one of which is mine lol

[–] NeoMoss@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 years ago

Hobbydrama It was kinda interesting hearing about the inner workings and happenings in hobby's you never even heard about.

[–] theDuesentrieb@feddit.de 3 points 2 years ago

I really enjoy r/archery hope they make it here

[–] burgersc12@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 years ago

Just the really small ones i was subscribed to, Tasker will probably be my most missed one, hard to find another forum specifically for one app!

[–] Satiric_Weasel@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This seems way too unlikely to happen, but r/askhistorians. It's an exceptionally well moderated (if a bit overzealous) community that allows for both the average person to ask seemingly impossible, very specific questions as well as academics to express their knowledge and passion for those very same super specific topics they find fascinating; but have difficulty finding an audience to listen to them in their day to day lives.

[–] prothy@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

I'm really hoping for some quality archaeology/anthropology/history content as well, I started !humans@terefere.eu for a kind of catch-all community (and yes, that's the best name I could come up with)

[–] thatonedude1210@beehaw.org 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Waiting on r/linuxmasterrace tbh

[–] misnina@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's pretty damn new, but the only reason I keep popping back on reddit is to go to r/HyruleEngineering. The problem is that it relies on the easiness of reddit hosting the video for these short clips which lemmy currently couldn't handle. Though, people there are dedicated enough to their builds and information that they would probably be the ones who would make burner youtube accounts to upload things.

agreed. r/infp especially, i always felt more at home there (even if my interests are more intp-like)

Come to discord!

Eurovision is probably the one I'll miss the most from Reddit. The people I talked to their were real chill.

[–] maniel@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

not a niche but i find lack of foodie and cooking communities on lemmy disturbing, also pcmr (isn't it too elitist for lemmy?), /r/sffpc, /r/mffpc

I'll definitely miss r/framework the most, the community on the subreddit is awesome

[–] DuffmanOfTheCosmos@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

r/Aviation and r/KerbalSpaceProgram equivalents would be welcomed by me.

I've seen a few people mention fighting games on here (e.g. Street Fighter). I'd be interested in that. The number of gameplay clips people would be sharing make me think it ought to be its own instance, though.

Also:

  • pens, fountain pens
  • mechanical keyboards
  • watches

Some communities have been created for those, but don't seem to have gained much popularity.

Id love a community for motorcycles, haven't seen much in the way of automotive on Lemmy yet.

[–] buxtonwater@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

A VR (virtual reality) focused community would be nice, it has a very strong community across devices all things considered.

[–] Wafflasy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Late reply but I just randomly saw this and thought you might wanna check out !virtualreality@feddit.de which seems to be the biggest vr community right now!

[–] buxtonwater@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago

Awesome, thanks for the suggestion, subscribed.

[–] Starfish@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

[–] cornballdefense@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Would love to see about starting up something like r/gamedeals once I get the hang of this place. I'm always on the lookout anyways.

r/buttcoin, every time I feel bad about myself I like reading about crypto fails to remind myself that I could have made even worse decisions.
r/noncredibledefense, makes the horror of the war not far from me a bit more bearable

[–] SirSolrac@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

r/grandorder Probably my most used subreddit. Also r/hololive and r/nijisanji

[–] Mac@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

/r/RidersChallenge
